The child has been taking cefixime granules, Ettanquity, antiviral oral liquid, but there has been no improvement. Yesterday, the doctor prescribed oseltamivir granules, ambroxol hydrochloride nebulization, budesonide, and applied traditional Chinese medicine acupoint patches, but the effects were not significant.
