"My daughter has been coughing for 3 weeks despite using her inhalers twice a day (Flovent/salbutamol), her nose is not running. What should I do?"

It is not normal for a 3-year-old child to cough for three weeks despite using their inhalers twice a day. It may be helpful to try a technique involving saline or distilled water to reduce the amount of mucus draining from the nose to the throat. This can make the inhalers more effective and alleviate symptoms. If the coughing persists after trying this technique for seven days, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
