I'm concerned, thoughare these meds safe to use every single day? And how long are we supposed to keep this up?

I'm wondering if there could be an issue if we end up using Duolin and Budecort nebulization for more days than the doctor suggested. Also, when using the nebulizer, is it better to breathe through the nose or the mouth?

Taking Duolin and Budecort nebulization for more days than prescribed can lead to overuse, causing paradoxical bronchospasm, tremors, palpitations, and other systemic side effects; it's essential to adhere to the prescribed duration and consult your doctor if symptoms persist, and breathe in the nebulized medication through your mouth, with your lips sealed tightly around the mouthpiece.

I'm really worried about my son because he's got a high viral fever that goes between 101 and 104. We're already doing sponging when his fever hits 103 and following the medicine schedule our pediatrician suggested, which seems to help lower the fever a bit. But someone mentioned it might be a good idea to keep him in an air-conditioned room with the temperature set to around 24-25 degrees. Do you think it's safe or advisable to use the AC when he's dealing with a viral fever?
