Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination suggested a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. Could you please tell me what medications are generally used for pediatric asthma?Doctor's answer:
For infants and young children with asthma, the commonly used medications are corticosteroids combined with urinary tract relaxing drugs, such as Symbicort. They can also be used in conjunction with leukotriene drugs to relieve bronchospasm. As for asthma, daily care is also very important. If there are allergens, it is necessary to prevent contact with allergenic substances and pay attention to preventing colds. Participate actively in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
