Hi, my 5 year old daughter has cough and wheezing. can i give her salbutamol liquid medicine by mouth along with albuterol inhaler ?

Better not: if you are giving her the right dose with the right technique, using a spacer. repeating the inhaler dose every 20-30 minutes if needed, till symptoms abate, if no improvement despite that, you need to call her doctor or go to ER, best wishes
