Question
How do I treat my baby’s cold and cough? My child has been coughing for two to three days now. Previous treatment and effectiveness: I have used Good Baby medicine and ceftriaxone. Desired assistance: I would like to consult, what are some more effective medications and folk remedies for baby cold and cough…
Answer
There’s no need to worry; this is a common disease in infants. Generally, due to their weak constitution, babies are prone to fever. Based on your description, I suggest you discontinue the use of the aforementioned two medications. If your baby has phlegm with their cough, I recommend giving them fresh bamboo juice. If they cough without phlegm, I suggest boiling water with white radish, pear, and rock sugar for them to drink. Additionally, if your baby has a runny nose with mild coughing, you can give them David’s granules or Antigen granules. Encourage them to drink plenty of water, avoid wind and cold, and prevent recurrence.
