What should I do if my child has a cough without phlegm and slightly stuffy nose?

Patient's question:

Child has a cough, no phlegm, slightly stuffy nose. Coughing frequently, has been drinking Jinbei Qingfei, which has started to show some effect, but later felt a bit milder. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: When drinking Jinbei Haji, what assistance was provided: Would like to consult if it can be taken together with loquat rock sugar water.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, as you mentioned, the child may have a respiratory infection, and there is some coughing. This could be a lower respiratory tract infection. Generally, loquat honey water should not be taken together with the aforementioned medications. It is recommended to take only one of them. In this case, I suggest conducting a blood test. If there is a bacterial infection, it will be necessary to use antibiotics.
