Hello, based on the information you provided, it is analyzed that the baby currently has a cough accompanied by phlegm in the throat, and the possibility of a respiratory infection cannot be ruled out. It is recommended that while administering medication to the baby, you can also consider using a nebulizer for the baby, as this can effectively help with phlegm removal and cough relief. Additionally, after one week of medication, please take the child to the hospital for a follow-up visit. If the symptoms of cough and phlegm continue to worsen, it may be necessary to consider adjusting the medication.
