<s>[INST] I have an 11 year old son that is about 145 lbs and 5 3 who is dealing with pretty bad asthma right now and his doc has him on prednison 30mg a.m and p.m, albuterol 3x a day (thru a neb) and dulera inhalation aerosol 2x a day....today he started complaining of heart-burn which he has never had before. He has been eat more, I think the prednisone has to do with that and probably more carbs then normal. Do you think that this heartburn is from his diet or the meds he is on? [/INST] Hi.... the symptom of heartburn which you are telling could be a sign of gastritis or a Castro esophageal reflex which could be due to the prednisolone which he is taking for wheezing. I suggest that you take a Proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole or pantoprazole to counter this effect of prednisolone. This is a prescription Chat Doctor. Coming to the diet aspect both for heartburn and wheezing non-spicy food is advisable. Regards -  </s>
