Question
The child has been suffering from a persistent cough, which is severe at night. The child has previously taken Amoxiclav Oral Solution, which was effective. Is it safe to take it long-term?
Answer
A 2-year-old child with excessive phlegm and cough is not suitable for long-term use of Amoxiclav Oral Solution, and should not be taken for more than 7 days. Traditional Chinese medicine can be used to treat phlegm and heat cough, and can be taken intermittently over a long period, making it less likely to develop drug resistance.
