What should I do if my baby has a fever and coughs up phlegm?

Patient's question:

My baby is sick. On Monday night, they started just having phlegm, and by the third day, they began coughing. It's not severe during the day but very bad at night. On the third night, they had a fever and just took fever-reducing medicine.

Doctor's answer:

In this case, it proves that the baby is suffering from a lower respiratory tract infection caused by bacterial splitting and viral infection, which may also be pneumonia. You can give your baby Cefixime Granules for Oral Suspension, Bromhexine Hydrochloride Oral Solution, and Pu'dilan Oral Solution. Then pay attention to drinking more water, and if the temperature is below 38.5 degrees, take fever-reducing medication such as ibuprofen. The above is the advice for the question "My baby is sick, and it has started with phlegm on Monday evening." I hope it helps you. Wish you good health!
