Is it safe to use the prescribed Levolin nebulizer for my 7-month-old baby's cough and stuffy nose, or is this medication only meant for asthma?

Levolin (levalbuterol) is a bronchodilator that helps open up the airways. While it is commonly associated with asthma, doctors also prescribe it for infants experiencing wheezing or chest tightness from viral respiratory infections. However, it does not treat a simple stuffy nose or a typical upper respiratory cough. Since this was prescribed, it is safe to use if your pediatrician detected wheezing during their exam. If you are unsure or if your baby's cough worsens, please check back with their doctor before starting the nebulizer.
