My daughter has a slight asthma problem and she gets a lot of coughing because of allergies. She's been told to use a nebuliser 4 times a day with 0.5ml asthalin and 0.5ml budecort mixed with 3ml NS. Also, she's on Monticope 2.5ml twice a day for 3 months. I'm wondering how long it'll take for her cough to go away with these medicines? I'm just really worried and looking for some guidance.

I'm really concerned about my 3-month-old baby because my husband drinks alcohol every day and sleeps right next to the baby. I'm worried if this could affect our baby in any way. Are there any possible side effects I should be aware of?

It's understandable to be concerned. If your husband is drinking alcohol regularly, there's a risk of accidental exposure to secondhand alcohol or other issues, especially if he's not fully alert while sleeping next to the baby. It's important to ensure a safe, sober environment for your baby to avoid any risks, including suffocation or impaired caregiving.

I'm really worried about my 2.5-year-old son. He's been dealing with a cold and cough for a few days, and the pediatrician said it might be WALRI. We started him on clarithromycin and nebulizer treatments, and we're on day three now. When I check his SPO2 while he's asleep, I'm seeing it fluctuate between 89 and 92, and sometimes it jumps to 95 or 96. Is this normal? Should I be concerned about these fluctuations? What should I do next?

I'm really worried about my 7-year-old son's asthma attacks. Can I use Duolin respules in a nebulizer for his asthma attacks? I know that albuterol or salbutamol is commonly used for asthma, but since Duolin doesn't have these active ingredients, is it still okay to use?

you can use duolin nebulizer
