A member asked:
My 3month old has a little cold/flem in her throat and nose. (shes to young to cough out) can i give her abuterol treatment?

Albuterol: Albuterol won't help her to clear her phlegm. You can use humidified air or just the saline in the nebulizer machine without the albuterolalbuterol (as blow by) . The best thing is probably the bulb suction with saline drops first. If shr has so much phlegm that she can't drink enough to keep hydrated you should bring her in to see her doctor.
