Thanks for consulting at Chat Doctor. For allergic bronchitis you may ask your doctor to add long acting bronchodilator nebulization like Foretell or Albuterol which may prevent recurrent episodes of wheezing, oral antihistamines, montelukast and bucolic combinations which prevent allergic response and helps in clearing chest of secretions. Episodes of cough, wheezing, chest congestion occur due to exposure to an allergen. You will need to identify what is triggering such episodes. It may be allergens like pollen, dust, mite etc., Sometimes chemicals like perfumes, mosquito repellents etc. Adequate treatment may not be as effective if exposure to allergens is continued. Also since your son is having this problem since two years it would be better if you consult pediatric pulmonologist for further evaluation.
