Question

What medicine should children take for dry cough and fever?

Answer

If a baby catches a cold with a dry cough and fever, and the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, oral fever-reducing medication can be taken. If the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods should be used. In cases of dry cough, oral antiemetic medication such as Simo Decoction can be taken under medical guidance. Additionally, pediatric acupuncture and massage can help alleviate symptoms of fever and dry cough.
