Hi....by what you quote I feel that your kid might be having a hyper reactive airways disease or wheezing. Budecort is the apt medicine as this has been going on for the past 3 weeks. Don't get scared seeing the side effect alone. In medicine its always risk benefit ratio. Your dr would have prescribed it after assessing properly. I suggest you go ahead with Budecort inhaler.
