My 8 year old daughter needs levolin and budesonide inhalers almost throughout the year. If I stop any one of those, her coughing starts and she starts coughing/vomiting up watery mucous. What should I do. This problem is continuing since she was 3/4 years old. Isn't there any long lasting remedy? Is taking those inhalers throughout the year, safe? Will this lead to other health problems?

It is completely safe to use inhalers throughout the year, if the inhalers are providing relief from asthmatic spells and prevents asthma attacks. It is better to wash the mouth after budesonide use. But, same dose should not be given without consulting a pulmonologist.
