Is It Safe To Use Nebulizers For Infants?
hello doctor. my bby is 2 yr old. from some last 10-15 days she coughs too hard and vomit. during the vomit her internal cough came out. her paediatrician had given her allegra and bricanyl for 4-5 days earlier around 15 days back. is it good to use nebulizer for her.

Hello dear,
If the cough is not coming down with these medications(anti histamine+bronchodilator),we need to give an antibiotic course too.Kindly review with the pediatrician to get the chest examined,and treat accordingly.Nebulization alone is unlikely to help as he is already getting bricanyl.
Meanwhile,avoid cold/dusty atmosphere.
Wishing for a faster cure,Thank you.
