Question

How long should a child take antibiotics?

Answer

The dosage for Azithromycin is to take three doses and then stop for four days, as it has a longer half-life and can maintain its therapeutic effect for a longer time even after discontinuation. For Linhexal, which has a shorter half-life, medication can be continued for three days after symptom relief to consolidate the treatment. Children have weaker resistance and are prone to pediatric general surgery-related issues. Parents should take their children to a regular hospital for examination and treatment, and use medication reasonably under the guidance of a doctor.
