Dear lybrate-user. Thanks for sharing your concern about your son's health problem. Is your son suffering from asthma / chronic bronchitis OR do you have an family history of these. Has the medication mentioned by you are prescribed by physician. Your son in only 5.6 years old, Pls don't use OTC medication, OTC like asthalin/budecort without any proper findings and physical examination should not be used. My suggestion is to have in person consultation with physician for better understanding and prescription.
