Question
What medication should be used for children with bronchitis?
Answer
Bronchitis is usually secondary to respiratory infections, with common symptoms including cough and phlegm. Treatment involves selecting appropriate medications based on the cause, such as antibiotics or cough suppressants. If the infection is viral, symptom treatment is primarily focused. Additionally, topical medications can also be a safe and effective treatment option, helping to alleviate symptoms while avoiding potential side effects from oral medications.
