Hi Doctor, my kid i suffering from wheezing problem sometimes...she is bit allergic...recently doctor suggested to use Asthalin inhaler 200 m doses and seroflo inhaler 125 m doses...she is 5.5 years old....can you please give more details about this
Hi, I had gone through your query and understand your concern. These medicines are prescribed by the doctor thinking of probable asthma. Asthalin inhaler acts as a reliever whereas Aeroflot inhaler acts as controller as well as reliever of attacks. If I were the treating physician, I would first look for triggers(cold, dut, exercise etc.), personal history of atop, family history of atomic diseases (asthma, eczema,hay fever etc.), sleep disturbance and other typical symptoms of asthma like cough, breathlessness,chest tightness. I would then perform objective test if possible to confirm the diagnosis of asthma and exclude other diseases like bronchitis, brochiolitis etc. If asthma is suspected, then I would start treatment according to step care management guideline of asthma. Seroflo inhaler is a combination of albuterol and fluticasone. Salmeterol is a long acting Chat Doctor. So my suggestion is :please consult with a respiratory medicine specialist to confirm the diagnosis and get proper step care management. Hope this helps you. Wish your kid good health.
