Is it needed to use budocort 200 inhaler if wheezing happens only twice?
Patient: my 2 years old son had wheezing, only for 2 times, as a result of sever cold and cough. he has been prescribed with budocort 200 inhaler to use two times a day for one and half years, as a  precaution.   i'm tensed to use it as my son is only 2 years old, and has to use for the next one and half years.  its a steroid right? it may cause side effect also?  as he had wheezing only 2 times, is it advisable to use this inhaler? Doctor: Hi and thanks for the query,I am afraid I am not of the opinion this inhaler should be used by the child at this stage. Wheezing occurring only twice does not really compel usage of this steroid. I would suggest some watchful waiting to see if the situation repeats itself once more. It s too early in my opinion. Kind regards
