Question

Can my child take pediatric lung heat cough and wheezing medicine for a cough?

Answer

It is recommended for pediatric pneumonia to undergo sputum culture and drug sensitivity testing to guide the use of antibiotic treatment. Strengthen care, ensure rest, nutrition, and fluid intake, maintain airway patency, actively control infection, and prevent complications. Timely symptomatic treatment includes sedation, antipyretic, cough relief, asthma control, antihistamines, expectoration, oxygen therapy, and correction of electrolyte imbalances. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric respiratory system disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for immediate treatment, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in children and have a balanced diet.
