Question
My 1-year-9-month-old child has been sneezing, with watery eyes and a clear runny nose, accompanied by coughing, especially severe during afternoon naps. It has been going on for two days now. Can they take oral pediatric paracetamol and chlorphenamine hydrochloride granules? Do they need additional cough medicine? What medications are suitable for a baby?
