Question

My baby is nine months old and has started coughing with phlegm two days ago. Are these medications helpful?

Answer

Hello! Based on your description, giving the baby cough and expectorant medications may have some effect. In addition, you can help the baby with back patting to expel phlegm, and consider giving easy tranquilizer, which may help relieve cough and expectoration. However, it is recommended that you take the baby to the hospital for a check-up to receive more professional opinions and treatment.
