You may consult me for that.

Hello lybrate-user!
salbair and asthalin have similar action and both are used as needed in bronchial asthma.
While asthalin contains salbutamol, salbair contains levosalbutamol.
Levosalbutamol is a isomer of salbutamol with comparatively lesser side effect potential.
Recent international guidelines don't support the preferred use of either salbutamol or levosalbutamol for asthma.

You can't stop inhalers for adult or child if they have breathlessness asthma allergy etc. Do absolute eosinophil count
do total serum ige and inform then continue nebulisers and mdi inhaler
any doctor who says your child just has allergy or just bronchitis is doing a crime of not recognising your child's problems and diagnosis as asthma
treat with mdi and continue for at least 5 years.
Sometimes childhood asthma withers / goes away by 12 years of age and may come back in 40's.

You must introduce our herbal breathe care kit besides your usual med. Once the effects come in few weeks, you ll withdraw drugs (your doctor will/ may withdraw) but herbs will continue. See betterment in few months. Pl talk by booking call so that category of asthma may be decided.

The technique of using mdi or pump is not correct probably you can use a spacer with mdi inhaler foracort twice mrng puffs and twice night puffs followed by gargles
asthalin pump can be used 2-2-2 or sos when required nebulisation can be done with lupi neb kit which prevents wastage of nebs / medication
any other doubts contact via Lybrate call for further assistance.
