I'm a bit worried about how safe it is to use a nebulizer for my baby. The doctor recommended using Astalin with a small sachet-like bottle for 5 minutes, then stopping for 15 minutes before using it again for another 5 minutes, and repeating this process three times in one session, twice a day. I'm really concerned if this could be toxic for my baby's heart.

Administering nebulization with Asthalin (salbutamol) via a nebulizer is generally safe for babies when done correctly and under medical supervision; the recommended dosing schedule of 5 minutes of nebulization, followed by a 15-minute break, repeated for a total of 3 cycles, twice a day, is a common and effective regimen; however, it's essential to monitor your baby's heart rate and overall condition during and after nebulization, as salbutamol can increase heart rate and cause palpitations;Last updated on 04 Jul 2025
