I am extrememly concerend that my 26 month old is being over-medicated, and I worry that he may have to pay the price at a later date...
At first we were seeing a doc that told us he had mild/intermittent asthma and had him on Xopenex and Pulmicort when he had cold symptoms (also Extendryl) 2x per day. THe last time he got sick, I was unhappy with the docs attitude so I vowed to switch. (He was on Zithromax, Pulmicort, PediaPred, and Xopenex).
I switched docs and without much hesitation this new doctor has decided to put him on a daily maintenance (even though without a cold he has no symptoms). Is this normal?
I am so worried about giving him Pulmicort/Xopenex and Singulair every day? Any help would be much appreciated... Thanks.
