Is it time for your child to start using an asthma controller medication? For children with asthma using a rescue inhaler more than two or three times a week, it may be a good idea to talk to a doctor about adding PULMICORT RESPULES, an FDA-approved asthma controller medication created just for kids. Although using an asthma medication every day may seem a little overwhelming, PULMICORT RESPULES has the following benefits.
- Reduces inflammation in the lungs and helps prevent asthma symptoms that can lead to an attack
- By breathing through a nebulizer, the medicine goes to your child’s lungs
- Available in a once-or-twice-daily dosing option
It’s important to remember that because they aren’t intended to provide fast relief asthma controller medications should not be used to treat sudden symptoms.
