[quote=Anonymous]16MO DS keeps ending up with respiratory issues every time he gets a cold (frequently, due to preschooler older brother). The pediatrician started us on a daily dose of steroids as a preventive measure, but he got sick again and we saw a specialist, who put him on a much higher daily dose. His sleeping has sucked lately. Related? Oral steroids (prednisone) have definitely messed up his sleeping, but inhaled ones dont absorb into the bloodstream as much, so at least with the lower doses we never had this problem. I'm wondering if the dose is so high it is affecting his sleep, or if something else is going on that we haven't figured out yet, like more teeth (although he has all his 1y molars). Anyway, looking for others with experience with these meds. [/quote]
