Question
What medication should be used for a child’s cough?
Answer
Whooping cough, as the name suggests, typically requires a coughing period of about a hundred days before it gradually improves. It is essential to consistently use medication. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a thorough examination to diagnose whether it is indeed whooping cough. If it is, the treatment mainly involves using erythromycin and symptomatic therapy, including taking medications to clear the lungs and cool the blood, as well as performing nebulization treatments.
