Question
The baby has been suffering from yellow nasal discharge for ten days, with phlegm in the throat. The baby has taken Guaifenesin and Guaifenesin Syrup, and now we are seeking treatment suggestions.
Answer
The baby’s yellow nasal discharge may be secondary bacterial infection following a viral infection. It is recommended to add anti-inflammatory medications such as cephalosporins, azithromycin, or roxithromycin while taking cetirizine and guaifenesin. Cetirizine and guaifenesin can be used simultaneously.
