Doctor's answer:
For children with bronchitis, it is recommended to take oral anti-inflammatory drugs such as cephalosporins, including cefixime granules and ribavirin, as well as lung-cleansing and expectorant medications. Acetyltetracycline granules should be taken according to body weight at a dose of 25-50 mg/kg per day, divided into 3-4 doses. The treatment duration is 7-14 days.If the baby weighs 10 kilograms (which is equivalent to 20 jin), they should take 250-500 mg per day, with the maximum total daily dose being this amount. The 250 mg or 500 mg dose should be divided into 3-4 doses, with one bag taken per dose. Taking three times a day is sufficient, as long as it falls within this range.
