Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM,
Nebulization helps the child at the time of congestion and bronchspasm.
It does not treat the cause of infection.
It is a necessity for persons suffering with asthma.
Recurrent Respiratory tract infection usually cause bronchospasm also so it can be used when it is required. .
Budicort nebulization to be used during severe bronchospasm only.
Hope the query is answered,
Thanks
