Question

What medication should I give to a 5-month-old baby who has a cough with phlegm?

Answer

Hello, based on your description, the baby’s condition may be caused by bronchitis. It is recommended to give the baby cough medicine, such as Qing Zhu Ji Oral Liquid, and to treat it with antibiotics like Azithromycin. If the symptoms are severe, intravenous treatment may be necessary. Please note to keep the baby well-hydrated to help alleviate the symptoms. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
