Question
How can medication be used appropriately for children with frequent coughs?
Answer
Children’s frequent coughs may be caused by wind-cold flu, usually accompanied by symptoms such as frequent coughing, thin sputum, and clear nasal discharge. It is recommended to use Sanao Decoction along with medications that reduce gas and phlegm. Additionally, drinking a decoction made from small sour pears and rock sugar is suggested, as well as increasing fluid intake. If necessary, a hospital visit is recommended, and antibiotics and children’s cough syrup can be taken.
