Suggest Treatment For Severe Cough While On Pulmicort
Hi! My 2 children both have a bad cough especially at night. It almost sounds as if they are struggling to loosen the mucus at the back of their throught. I have given mucospect to help loosen the mucus and I ve given prospan for the cough. After an hour, with both kids still coughing almost continuelly, I used Pulmicort and combivent in my nebuliser. They dont have a fever or any other symptoms. Are there more effective meds I can give them to help them sleep better at night. We are barely sleeping as it is. Thank You!

Hello
Thank you for asking in HCM.
As you explain the medications seems that they are treating for allergic asthma. I think that it is the right treatment but if the complains continue according to the severity of asthma maybe the alergologist might think for adding some other treatment like montelukast for example.
Thank you
