A member asked:
1yr old was dx'd w/ reactive airway disease. he's on albuterol 4x/day. his cough has gotten more painful/frequent since using it. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Contact pediatrician: If your baby's on the albuterol nebulizer, s/he should be getting better not worse on it. So it's best to contact your pediatrician as soon as possible to let them know what's happening. They can advise you further. Plus they can document this in your baby's chart.
