Hello,

Asthalin and Budecort inhalers are used in the following conditions:
1) Obstructive airway disease
2) Severe bronchospasm seen in
Acute severe asthma
Acute bronchitis
Acute bronchiolitis
Acute laryngo-tracheo-bronchitis
3) Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
4) Interstitial lung disease

So you can make your daughter take the Asthalin and Budecort inhalers to:
Relieve bronchospasm
Decrease bronchial secretions
Reduce wheezing and coughing

The following are few side effects of Asthalin:
1) Tremors
2) Nervousness
3) Insomnia
4) Nausea
5) Fever
6) Vomiting
7) Headache

Few side effects of Budecort are:
1) Respiratory infections
2) Rhinitis
3) Otitis media or ear infection
4) Nasopharyngitis

Here the therapeutic uses overweigh the side effects. So you can use both Asthalin and Budecort inhalers without hesitation as prescribed by your physician.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Hello,

Actually, Asthalin and Budecort are used in all the following conditions:
1) Bronchial asthma
2) Acute bronchitis
3) Acute bronchiolitis
4) Acute laryngo-tracheo-bronchitis
5) Chronic obstructive airway disease
6) Viral infections of upper respiratory tract

So, you don't need to worry as your kid may be suffering from seasonal episode of obstructive airway disease and it's not asthma. The medications will help dilate her airways and reduce her inflammation and thus breathe easily. Please do use the medications. Many conditions mimic asthma so you don't need to worry.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
