The baby had a fever two days ago, which subsided yesterday. Last night, the baby coughed severely during the nap. Today, the baby is in poor spirits and continues to cough.

Is it necessary to take azithromycin, an antibiotic?Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described and the careful examination results, it is considered that the normal blood test results may be due to a viral infection. It is recommended to take some antiviral traditional Chinese medicine, such as Shuanghuanglian Oral Liquid, and also take some Qingfei Granules for treatment. Antibiotics are not necessary to take. Drink more water, pay attention to preventing colds, and avoid eating snacks.
