Brief Answer:
unlikely.

Detailed Answer:
Hi thanks for the follow up.

After taking budecort inhaler,the child should rinse the mouth with drinking water to get rid of the taste the budecort taste.

But its unlikely to get vomiting due to budecort.

If the child is having continuous vomiting, then it may be due to other reasons, so get your doctor to re examine him if the vomiting persists.
Thank you.

He was given budecort inhaler for the first time today at 6am.Since then he threw up twice.However,in both these instances thick cough came out.WE gave him a hot water bath and he seems quite cheerful now.
He was always a reasonably healthy eater and we do not encourage junk food.But today he was very fussy and wanted to have Maggie for breakfast-we coceded and he ate a full plate.He also does not have any fever.
After throwing up twice he is again in a playful mood.Like I mentioned while throwing up it was thick cough.
Await your observation.
