Recurrent episodes of childhood asthma are generally caused by allergies. Therefore, when asthma recurs frequently, it is important to undergo allergy testing at a hospital as early as possible. Once the allergen is identified, proper isolation measures should be taken in daily life to avoid triggers that may induce asthma attacks. During an asthma attack, if it is caused by an allergy, antiallergic medications such as loratadine syrup can be taken orally under a doctor's guidance.
