Question

What should I do if my three-month-old baby has a cough?

Answer

It seems like your baby is experiencing a cough possibly due to an upper respiratory infection, which is quite common in infancy. You can give them some Otrivine pediatric cough syrup and Platycodon granules. Make sure they drink plenty of water. If you are breastfeeding, avoid spicy and irritating foods. Keep the room well-ventilated. This symptom might be caused by an upper respiratory infection or tracheitis. It is suggested that you can selectively administer cefixime granules, roxithromycin granules, sodium chloride oral solution, children’s cold medicine, Qingkailing granules, Huitong granules, and Xianzhujiu for treatment. Generally, they should recover quickly.
