What Causes Intermittent Frequent Bouts Of Cough And Cold In Children?
My daughter is five years old. She gets intermittently frequent bouts of cough and cold. Recently she has developed a tendency of coughing incessantly with intervals intervening. Her pediatrician has prescribed her Flohale inhaler 125 -one puff twice daily. She has already been taking Telekast 5 for the last few months preceded by Telekast 4 for about one year.Sir my worry is whether Flohale would be safe for her?Whether my daughter wouldget addictive to the inhaler after regular usage thereof for a month or so? Please help me by answering my querries.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern "Flohale" (Fluticasone) does not cause any addiction but this is steroid and this need to be given when this is extremely indicated, hope this information helps, take care.
