<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Hi, my 9 years old son is presently affected by juvenile asthma, when spring comes he developes cough and has difficulty in breathing. A pediatrician gave him Ipravent and Asthalin to be used with a neebulizer, two years ago. As in the area we live pediatrician is not available every day of the week, I would like to ask if it is safe to give either one or both of these medications, until we can actually visit a pediatrician. Also I need to know the dosage. Thanking you very much, Gabriele Piscicelli, Shuru, Kullu Distt, H.P. India  <response>: Hello, Thank you for asking to Chat Doctor. Asthalin prevent via nebulizer are usually safe for a child of 9 years age, unless over dosage. The exact dosing depends on severity of your children current symptoms. I would suggest preferring Stalin over Prevent if you want to use any one of them. Dont use Prevent for more than 3 times a day and for more than 3 days. You can use Stalin when your child has wheezing or difficulty in breathing. But if you need to use it more than 4-6 times a day, it means he may be having a serious exacerbation. I would suggest you to start Montelukast tablet daily as he is having seasonal symptoms, possibility of allergy is there. Also, avoid cold fluids exposure to smokedust. Please consult pediatrician as early as possible. I hope this helps. Wish your son the best of the health. Regards. Chat Doctor.
