Hi
That sounds like alot of meds. My son has asthma, that has been pretty bad at times. He's been hospitalized on three occassions. He also had pneumina (forgot sp?) as an infant. His asthma is triggered by colds and dust mites.
A couple of months ago his Allergist put him on Pulmicort and Nasanex, it seems to be working. My son was diagnosed when he was about 2 and now he's 9 so he's been on all different kinds of meds. I think it's a trial and era thing.
My son's primary care physcian had him on meds that were too strong and his Allergist told me never to go back to her again for his Asthmatic care. He does'nt realize that he is always booked :(
I would get a second or even a third opinion,maybe you could take her to a specialist, usually the meds is prescribed by the severity. I also have a touch of asthma but mine is not severe. My Dr. has me on Flovent and Albuterol.
Take Care
