Hi, I'am Dr Suresh K Yadav MD (paediatrics), I had gone through your question and understand your concerns,

You should give her 3 inhalations of Livolin at interval of 20 minutes for rapid relief of symptoms , if there is no relief after 3 inhalations you should contact in emergency . Frequency of levolin can be increased if symptoms are more . If symptoms are not improving a short course of oral steroids can be given after consulting your doctor .

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions
