How close together can you give nebulized pulmicort (budesonide 0.5mg)? forgot to give "extra" pre-op dose. 11 hours until surgery. 6yr old child.

Pulmicort: The 0.5 mg dose is once a day. You can give half the dose every 12 hours, so you could give 0.25 mg dose now.

Give it : Pulmacort at .5 mg twice daily is common for symptomatic kids @ 6. A third dose if desired by your treating team is fine.
