Reactive Airway Disease...dairy Free Diet?

My 9 month old daughter has just been diagnosed with Reactive Airway Disease. She has been put on pulmicort and albuteral for a short period. My question is: I have read wheat and dairy play a role in Asthma. As far as her formula is concerned, would any of you moms (that have been thru this) recommend offering her a Soy based formula vs. Milk based? I know Similac and Enfamil make a Soy formula.
