Child Coughing for Five to Six Days, Medication Not Effective: What to Do?

Question

The child has been coughing for five to six days, and the medication is not working very well. Please help. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Chlorpheniramine Maleate Granules, Ambroxol Granules for Children, Paracetamol and Chlorphenamine Maleate Granules for Children. What kind of assistance do you need? How to treat? Thank you, doctor.

Answer

I’m glad to explain the issue to you. Treatment for upper respiratory infections in children requires a certain period of time, and the duration varies depending on each child’s constitution. It is recommended to focus on treatment for a period of time, and if it is not effective, consider switching to other antibiotics. This is the suggestion for the question “What should I do if the child has been coughing for five to six days and the medication is not effective.” I hope it helps you. Wishing you health!
