<bot>: Hello, Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. I went through your daughters history and would like to make suggestions for her as follows:1. I would like to know more about her like - a. since when she has allergies? b. since when has she asthma? c. what are her symptoms? d. since when is she taking Prescott DS? e. has she taken any inhalers? f. what is frequency of her attacks? etc. above details would help me to know about her problems better and therefore to make more specific suggestions for her. At present, I would like to make suggestions for her, from details provided by you, as follows:2. Prescott DS is an oral corticosteroid. It is not used as first treatment in child Chat Doctor.
