Initial stage of cough. can i use nebulizer with saline alone or with salbutamol?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mgt: For an infant nasal saline to keep the passages clear is important. If there is a history of asthma, please use the salbutamol. If you are treating bronchiolitis saline can help relieve symptoms.
