Question

My 2-year-old daughter has been diagnosed with asthma, and I'm really worried because we've seen multiple pediatricians without much improvement. About a year ago, she started with a severe cough that lasted for around five months, and we treated her for just that before realizing it was asthma. Were currently giving her salbutamol and prednisolone, but I'm concerned about whether this is the best treatment plan or if there's something else we should consider. Could you offer any guidance or suggestions?

I'm trying to figure out how much milk my 2.7-year-old son should be drinking. He weighs 13.7 kg. Also, I'm curious if there are any specific health drinks you'd recommend and how often or how much he should have them. And by the way, is it alright to add a bit of sugar to things like idly or curd for him at this age?
