Question
A 5-year-old child is experiencing symptoms of nasal congestion, yellow nasal discharge, and cough. The child has been taking Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid and Qingkailing for three days, as well as Cefixime Granules for six days. The symptoms have somewhat improved, but the cough, nasal congestion, and nasal discharge persist. Is it necessary to continue taking Cefixime? What is the recommended treatment duration? Is Xuanbeiyu Liquid effective, and what are the suggestions for the subsequent management of this cough?
Answer
The 5-year-old child has already been treated with some medications but still has a cough. It is advised to pay attention to keeping warm, use Ribavirin for treatment, and also take Children’s Aminoguanidine Sensitivity Granules and Children’s Qingfei Liangxue Granules. These are the guidelines for the suggested treatment of “nasal congestion, yellow nasal discharge, and cough due to upper respiratory tract infection.” I hope this helps and wish you health.
