Hi,
As far as my clinical experience is concerned, you can safely give broncho dilator Levolin with corticosteroid Budecort which handles the inflammation part of the respiratory infection.
Time gap can be best managed by the treating physician, but for general purposes, a 2-hour gap will suffice.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
