Is Nebulisation With Duolin Repsules Safe For Infants During Wheezing?
My son is 17 months old. When ever he have cold or viral attack, he is having wheezing also. My doctor prescribed nebulisation with Duolin repsules (1.2 ml duolin + 2 ml saline) 3 times a day and no other medicines. Is it safe to give this whenever wheezing comes?
Thanks

Hi dear,
I understand your concerns, but nebulization is always better then other ways for treatment. Duolin is safe,it just works in lungs. It is helpful for inflammation and spasmus of bronchi. It will not give general side effects, because it will dilatate bronhi and sputum will come out. Don' t do nebulization more then 4 times.Baby will recovery quicklier.
Wish your baby a good health
