Question

A three-month-old baby has caught a cold due to the weather turning cool. The baby is currently experiencing severe vomiting, along with mild coughing and nasal congestion. The baby had previously suffered from bronchitis, which has just recently improved. Can I give the baby Anfenning Granules or Xia’er Chaihuang Granules?

Answer

The baby is currently suffering from a wind-cold type of cold, and it is recommended to administer Anfenning Paracetamol Granules for the cold treatment, and to feed the baby in small, frequent meals to avoid food retention. Additionally, since the cold may lead to a recurrence of gastrointestinal symptoms, treatment with the aforementioned cold medication can be considered. If the coughing symptoms are severe, consider giving the baby Xia’er Feire Hechuan Oral Liquid. I hope these suggestions are helpful to you, and I wish the baby a healthy recovery!
