A member asked:

Is ventolin safe for a 7 month old baby?

Dr. David Liu answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics

Yes: Ventolin, or albuterol is used in younger infants in the treatment of asthma or certain other respiratory conditions. As always, the prescribed dosages should not be exceeded, and if your baby is still having wheezing or problems breathing after using the treatments, call your provider right away.
