Hi,

First of all, don't label your child as asthma. Asthma is not diagnosed under 6 years of age. What your child is having is viral triggered wheezing. It could be that even a simple viral infection will trigger wheezing.

To start the child on intermittent metered dose inhaler with Levolin puff for 3 days every time he is getting wheeze.if without cold child is getting cough and fast breathing he requires inhaled steroids. Please go to a proper pediatrician.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Prasanna Lakshmi, Pediatrician
