What are the consequences of children taking cold medicine?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it might affect my health and work. What are the consequences if children take cold medicine?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you mentioned, levofloxacin is not suitable for children. Long-term use can lead to damage to the liver and kidneys. If there are no discomfort symptoms, it won't be a problem. There are many reasons that can cause endocrine diseases in children. If the child is confirmed to have endocrine disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to actively treat it, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. The child needs a balanced diet and should avoid stimulating and cold foods.
