Question
The baby is nearly one week old and started coughing after eating a few biscuits two days ago. There was a slight cough yesterday, and today there is some phlegm. What medication can be taken?
Answer
Based on the situation you described, if the baby is just coughing with phlegm, you can give them a herbal medicine to clear the lungs and cool the blood. I suggest you can give them Guaifenesin Oral Solution syrup or pediatric Lung-Cooling and Blood-Cooling Granules. Pay attention to giving the child plenty of water and eating a light diet.
