Babyhaler for Asthma

My daughter has been coughing again since Friday so we brought her to the pedia-pulmonologist today. The doctor told us that he thinks it is time for us to upscale her asthma treatment… since the maintenance medicine doesn’t seem to be working, he prescribed an inhaler for her. He also advised us to get a Babyhaler to make sure that she gets the medicine from the inhaler correctly. I haven’t seen a Babyhaler before so when we bought one earlier, this is what I saw.

‘
The doctor said that she will be using it for at least a few months. I pray that may God use these medicines to help her be healed and let her Asthma attacks become less and less frequent.

  1. same with my daughter. My daughter's attack is every wee hours of the night :( She coughing very hard :(

    I'm praying for a pedia-pulmonary who really understand my daughter's sickness.

  4. my son also has asthma since 6 mos old. we were in and out of the hospital and have bought all the gadgets to help him. But when i had enough of it, i changed his pedia and resigned from my job. Good enough he is never admitted again and no attacks except for mild ones. Pray for you child also to get over her asthma :-)

  5. Ren also uses this baby inhaler even before he reached 1 yr. old. He used it for almost a year as per pedia's advise good thing he doesn't have any asthma attack ever since. He is now 2 years old and 7 months.

  6. That's how a babyhaler pala looks like. I remember receiving one from Justin's pedia when he was prescribed Seretide; I just don't know what it's called. Justin used to have allergic cough. Justin is still on Montelukast and Seretide for the entrie month of March.
