Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
Yes, you can use the asthalin and budecort inhaler whenever there is a bronchoconstriction following infection.
As your child is having cold and cough it may leads to lower respiratory tract infection leading to congestion and narrowing of the bronchioles.
You can give inhalers for 5-7 days or till the symptoms comes down. If the symptoms are not comimg down then you have to approach your paediatrician for a course of antibiotics.
Thank you.
