Hi, my 4 year-old son has asthma . He has been wheezing since yesterday. I have given him asthalin inhaler and also put him on nebulizer (asthalin+budecort). He has been coudhing badly since a few hours. Can I give him 1.25 ml of Piriton CS to supress his cough? Will it adversely affect his asthma? Pls confirm - Nimmi from India ( YYYY@YYYY )
You should continue to nebulize your child with Stalin and decor. Give him a tablet of montage LC kid. There is no harm in giving Portion CS as it is for cough, but his cough will only subside once his asthma is under control. If required, you may give him a short course of oral steroids like omnacortil 5 ml for 3 to 5 days.
