bronchiolitis

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
Your child seems to have viral bronchiolitis which is very common in this age.
This may even last for a month.
The medicines your doctor has prescribed are absolutely safe
You can continue them along with asthalin nebulisations.
If still no improvement, a chest xray may be needed to rule out bacterial pneumonia.
Wishing your child speedy recovery
