How to Treat Allergic Cough

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving and crying non-stop lately. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. How should allergic cough be treated?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of pediatric allergic cough should avoid the abuse of antibiotics and hormones. Identifying allergens through allergen detection can help conduct desensitization therapy. In terms of medication, antihistamines such as chlorpheniramine and ketotifen can be used, or bronchodilators like salbutamol and theophylline may also be applied. Parents should have a full understanding of pediatric allergic cough and avoid overusing cold medications for their children, which could lead to other adverse reactions.
