Question
The child is coughing without phlegm and has a bit of a stuffy nose. They keep coughing, and they’ve started to feel some relief after drinking Jinbei Qingfei, but there’s a bit of a softening feeling. Previous treatment and effectiveness: When drinking Jinbei Compound, what kind of assistance is needed? I want to consult whether it’s okay to drink Lo Han Guo sugar water at the same time.
Answer
Based on your description, it seems that your child might be suffering from a respiratory infection, and some coughing could indicate lower respiratory tract infection. It’s generally not recommended to mix Lo Han Guo sugar water with the aforementioned medication. I suggest taking only one type of medication in this situation. Moreover, I recommend doing a routine blood test as there might be a need for antibiotic use if there is a bacterial infection.
