[|Human|] Good evening Doctor, My son is 5 years old and weigh 19 kgs. He gets frequent problem of short breath after 1-2 days of cold. some doctors say he is having bronchitis, some say it is asthmatic attack. for last 3 years he is suffering this problem. He is fine for few months and during weather change he again gets this problem. This time he got ill on 30.11.13 then he was admitted for a day. after giving a weeks medication he got fine then again after a week he got ill (fever + short breath) given levolin 0.63 three times a day, budecort for three days (twice daily) we continued with montair kid plus since 30.11.13 and still we are giving. A week back he got OK, but on 05.01.14 again he got cold. Though short breathe is not this time, but having problem of running nose and cough sound. My first question is how long we can give Levolin (Twice daily) without any side effect. In last three years he might have taken levolin very often. Next question - Does levolin helps in running / blocked nose and in congestion. My next question is at what age will he able to fight cold without medication / he will be free of short breathe. Third when he gets short breathe I get tensed, how much risk is there in such cases. Waiting eagerly for your reply, please. Regards
[|AI|]  Leveling helps to relieve the bronchospasm and shortness of breath. It can be given whenever the child has breathing difficulty (bronchospasm), generally for not longer than 2 weeks ATA stretch. No it does not relieve run or blocked nose. These problems generally improve as the child grows older, but no definite age can be predicted. This is treatable condition and with proper treatment the problem can be well controlled.
