Patient's question:
My baby is now 18 years and 3 months old. Recently, for the past 4-5 days, he has been coughing at night. At first, it was just mild coughing a couple of times, and he didn't seem to cough much during the day. But yesterday, I noticed his coughing had become a bit softer, and at night, he kept coughing non-stop. I don't know what medicine to give him.What kind of help is needed: Hello, my child has been coughing non-stop at night. What medicine should I give him?
Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, has the baby been coughing and running a high fever? Does he have a headache? Have you had a blood test? Coughs at night but not during the day. Does he have any stomach problems? You should take the baby for a complete blood count test to check if the blood index is high. If the blood index is high, you can use antibiotics such as Cefixime. The above is advice for the question "What medicine should a child take for continuous coughing at night?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
