I'm worried because my 7-year-old has been dealing with asthma, and we've been using Foracort 200 mg and Montek LC for their treatment. I'm wondering if there are any other medication options we could consider. Can these medicines be changed or adjusted for a child of this age? I'm really hoping to find the best solution to help manage the asthma symptoms better.

My daughter's been coughing since October and at first, it was just like any normal cough. After three days of this, we took her to see her pediatrician who prescribed some meds and antibiotics. She's basically been on one medication or another since then. We've even seen a few doctors, like a general physician, another pediatrician, and a pulmonologist, but nothing's working. She coughs so much at night that sometimes she ends up vomiting. We're really worried and feel helpless about her health. She's on an inhaler and other meds for her cough and cold right now. Can someone offer any advice for us concerned parents?
Yes,continue same treatment.Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.
