Question

My child has been frequently coughing recently, accompanied by crying and restlessness. Although the hospital examination did not show any abnormalities, the parents are inquiring about the general medication options for treating children’s cough in this situation?

Answer

In this case, you can consider giving your child Maigan Granules and Qingzhu Oral Liquid to alleviate cough symptoms. If the blood count shows signs of infection, it may be necessary to use antibiotics in conjunction, such as Azithromycin Dispersible Tablets. At the same time, it is recommended to give your child plenty of water, maintain good indoor air circulation, and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment. If symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to undergo a chest X-ray and adjust the treatment plan based on the examination results. In terms of diet, it is best to avoid spicy, cold, and other irritating foods.
