Question
My baby at three months old has developed a severe cold and cough. What medications should I give to my baby for treatment?
Answer
If a three-month-old baby is experiencing symptoms of cold and cough, it may be due to an upper respiratory infection or bronchitis. Recommended medications for children include cefixime granules, roxithromycin granules, and ammonium chloride oral solution. Additionally, you can consider giving auxiliary medications such as children’s cold syrup, Qingkailing granules, Houtong granules, and fresh bamboo decoction. To promote the baby’s recovery, it is suggested to drink plenty of water, ensure adequate rest, and maintain a balanced diet with an abundance of fresh vegetables and fruits.
