Past treatment and effectiveness: Coughing for over a month. Lately, the baby has been sleeping a lot during naps.

Doctor's answer:

Recurring cough, runny nose, and fever lasting for over a month. Pay attention to getting a chest CT to rule out pneumonia or atypical bacterial bronchitis. Only effective antibiotics can help, and it takes about 2 weeks for treatment to be effective. Oral azithromycin granules and ambroxol oral solution can be taken. The most important thing is whether the cough is accompanied by phlegm? If there are no fever symptoms recently, or if fever-reducing medication has been taken, it is possible to feel drowsy. Oral immune supplements such as Ganoderma lucidum peptide lyophilized powder, Yu Ping Feng granules, and transfer factor oral solution can be used.
