just thought i would post this incase someone else was wondering the same thing. i rang my local immunisation centre where ds has gotten all his vax's and asked if ds needed to be excluded because of the predmix he has for asthma. and after being on hold while the nurse consulted a higher up nurse and checking their books for info i was told if ds had the dosage he has been prescribed everyday he wouldnt be able to but coz he doesnt have it everyday he can i just have to be careful of a severe reaction like him getting chickenpox real bad.
ds has 2ml of predmix (1ml =5mg) its the equilvalent of cortisone. so just thought i would post my findings incase someone else was in the same boat as us :D
