Patient's question:
3-year-old child had a fever on the 12th evening and took ibuprofen granules and Children's Paracetamol to reduce fever. They went to the children's hospital and were diagnosed with inflammation and redness in the throat. They were prescribed Children's Mucolytic and Cough Granules, Antiviral Oral Liquid, and Azithromycin. Now, after taking the medicine for three days, the cough has worsened. Can they switch to Lungenli Cough Syrup or Children's Cough and Asthma Granules? Please reply as soon as possible. Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is likely that the cough is caused by a respiratory infection. You can stop taking Azithromycin after 3 days and then take a 4-day break. You can switch to Lungenli Koufuye (Pulmonary Force Oral Liquid). It is also important to drink plenty of water, and using a nebulizer for treatment can be much more effective. This is the advice for the question "Can I switch the medicine for a 3-year-old child with a fever if it doesn't work?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
