<s>[INST] hi, my daughter is 7yrs, has been prescribed with beclometasone 100gms  from the age of 3yrs, with one shot in morning and evening.And salbutamol sos, its been a yr she is not used salbutamol. Do you think by any chance she can cut down her beclometasone or can she stop it eventually??. her GP says it might grow out with her age. Do you reckon it? What can u suggest, i really want to stop it, as its a steriod and it might have a long run effect on her liver. [/INST] By "shot" did you mean an injection or an inhaler? If it is inhaler that you are talking about, then, first, beclomethasone is not appropriate for a child. It may be better to give fluticasone or budesonide inhalers. Secondly, if she has been without a single episode of breathing difficulty since a year, sure, why not first cut out the night dose and continue with once a day 100 micrograms for a month or so, and then kill the morning dose as well. If, however, cutting down the morning dose causes any recurrence of her wheezing or asthma, you should be visiting a specialist urgently to take guidance. Hope she is well soon. </s>
