hi,
the treatment given to you child for allergy is correct..lot of people think that inhaler (seroflo) given for allergy and asthma cause dependence which is wrong.. these inhaler act locally on the bronchi ( lung ) and do not mix with blood.. hence the side effects produced by them is minimal almost zero.. the chemicals used in the inhaler does not cause dependence, in fact this is the best treatment available for allergy and asthma.. the montair given is also given in asthma along with inhalers..kindly follow the treatment given..it is going to stop the progression of allergy and asthma ..
thank you
