What kind of medicine should a child with a cold and cough take?

Patient's question:

7-year-old child with wind-cold cold cough, what medicine to take

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the symptoms may be caused by catching a cold, which can lead to cough, stuffy nose, runny nose, sore throat, or symptoms like weakness and fatigue. It is recommended to measure your temperature to check for signs of fever and to examine your throat for redness, swelling, or swollen tonsils. It is advised to maintain a light and nutritious diet, drink more warm water appropriately, and avoid spicy or greasy foods. Pay attention to adding or removing clothes to avoid getting cold. You can take Sanlie Tong tablets, antiviral powder, and Gancao Heji orally. If you have sore throat, redness, swelling, or swollen tonsils, you can take Amoxicillin (if you are not allergic). Wishing you a speedy recovery and a healthy and happy life.
