Also he gave lama-4 tablet to take once a day for 10 days. But i gave for 3 days only.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi ! it is very difficult to give you an advice without auscultating your daughter. basically levolin is a bronchodilator given in case of wheeze & respicure is a medicine given for symptomatic relief of fever,cough & coryza. lama-4 tablet is monteleukast which prevents against similar attacks in near future & is given in mild intermittent asthma. its better to visit your pediatrician as self medication is never recommended & in any case if he is suspecting mild asthma its better if you let him auscultate your daughter so that he can decide future course of action. take care.
