I'm wondering how much it usually costs for nebulization at a hospital for my baby. We need to do it twice a day for a whole week, and I'm not sure what to expect price-wise. Can you give me an idea?

Nebulization typically costs between 200 to 500 per session in hospitals, depending on the facility and location. If your baby requires it twice a day for a week, you might be looking at a total of 2800 to 7000 for the week, though prices can vary. I would suggest confirming with your hospital for more precise rates.

I'm a bit worried about my child who was advised to use Duolin and Flohale for severe asthma. He's currently having an attack, and I'm wondering if I can mix Duolin 0.5 mg and Flohale 0.5 mg respules and give them together. Can you let me know if that's okay?

no they shouldn't be mixed together as they both serve same purpose

I'm really worried about my little one. He had pneumonia when he was just 9 months old, and since then he keeps getting sick every few weeks, like every 23 weeks or so. Now he's got a fever and cold, and he's coughing with wheezing again. Is there a pattern here, or something we should be doing differently? This keeps happening, and I feel like I'm missing something important. Would love your advice on what steps to take next.
