Question

The child has a cold with greenish nasal discharge. After taking Qingkailing, there has been no improvement. What medication and treatment methods are suitable?

Answer

The current condition of the child may be a cold, but due to the child’s young age and weaker resistance, medication treatment is necessary now. For the current situation, you can give the child pediatric paracetamol yellow amine capsules in combination with diphencyprone granules for oral administration. If there is a significant fever, please seek medical attention immediately. Alternatively, you can use traditional Chinese medicine, such as Ganmao Qingre Granules for wind-cold colds and Yinhuang Granules for wind-heat colds. Combining the above Western medicine with traditional Chinese medicine will have a more significant effect.
