Hi,
As per the latest international guidelines Budesonide and as and when required Salbutamol is the best treatment modality for the condition which you have mentioned which could be multi triggered wheezing.
There will be excessive cough along with wheezing and intercostal retractions when it is wheezing.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
