Hi Doctor, My son is 5 & half year old , He is allergical & catches cold very frequently , which subsequently convert into chest congestion . We normally start with Anti allergic medicine like Cetirizine /Montair & than during congestion doctor suggested Ambroxol HCL,Terbutaline & Guaipenesin combination medicine & Inhaler Levolin & Budecort 100 . I wanted to know what should I give to my son once we see first symptoms like running nose & Sneezing so that he can be cured at early stage before getting chest congestion & cough. Rgds

Hi,
I would suggest to observe the instigating substance causing sneezing (allergen). It can be external thing Like dust, smoke, fumes, sprays / scent, dusting powder, enables like specific pulses, milk, egg or fruit, vegetable / particular drug etc. You have to observe and find the allergen and avoid its exposure to baby.
If you catch beginning point of cold and start with Cetirizine and Montair combination instantly, the further attack can be arrested. You can give your baby desensitization therapy to get rid of allergy. Please consult a allergy specialist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
