You should consult your doctor or a paediatrician to ensure these medicines are safe and appropriate for your child's age and weight. Regular wheezing may indicate underlying asthma, which often requires long-term management. Your doctor may recommend a preventer inhaler or other maintenance therapy to reduce flare-ups, improve breathing, and prevent complications.
