Question
My son is 6 months old and has a lot of phlegm that he can’t cough up, with a rattling cough and clear nasal discharge. Is the Xiong Dan Chuan Bei Oral Liquid effective for cough relief? How much should a 6-month-old baby take at one time?
Answer
The six-month-old baby is once again experiencing clear nasal discharge and coughing with phlegm, which is generally the most common case of upper respiratory tract infection due to catching a cold. I recommend using Acetaminophen Yellow Nanoparticle Powder and Guaifenesin Hydrochloride Oral Solution for the child. These two medications are more symptomatic and have better cooling blood effects.
