Question

Can a 4-month-old baby with phlegm in the throat drink Lo Han Guo water?

Answer

If the cough is severe, symptomatic anti-inflammatory medication like Bao Ke Ning Granules can be administered. If there are symptoms of nasal congestion, sneezing, and runny nose, children’s paracetamol and antihistamine granules can be taken to alleviate the symptoms. It’s also recommended to give the baby plenty of water, expose them to sunlight more often, and avoid catching a cold again.
