Question
What medication can a one-year-old baby take to clear the lungs for acute tracheitis?
Answer
If a baby is diagnosed with a tracheal infection, they may produce phlegm. It’s recommended to drink plenty of water and provide back patting to help expel phlegm. You can give oral pediatric Pulilehe mixture or pediatric Liangxue, which are both traditional Chinese medicine preparations with relatively few side effects. If the cough is not severe and there is just a lot of phlegm, you can take an oral syrup to expectorate. Remember to drink plenty of water. Wishing the baby a quick recovery!
