A. Hello dear parent, we'll if it is prescribed by your doctor then there is nothing to be worried about. Also you are giving it through nebulizer. And through nebulizer, medicine reaches directly to.lungs. Whereas steroids, if taken through syrup or tablet that goes to blood and entire body. So do not worry. Good luck and take care
