What medicine should be taken for children's cough?

Patient's question:

No cough at night, cough during the day, coughing is heavier during exercise, sometimes with phlegm, sometimes dry cough, no fever

Doctor's answer:

There are many causes of cough in children, such as colds, bronchitis, pneumonia, whooping cough, tuberculosis, and pharyngitis, all of which can cause children to cough. Colds and bronchitis are the most common. According to regulations, it is also necessary to combine a blood test and a chest X-ray to avoid delaying treatment. Currently, the child needs scientific care, including adequate fluid intake. During the coughing period, gently tapping the child's back can help stimulate the expulsion of phlegm. For medication, the child can take Cefixime granules for oral suspension, Taiji Jizhi Syrup, and Xiao'er Qingfei Tanhuaguo to treat the cough. The cough can gradually recover. If the cough persists, it is also necessary to go to the hospital for a check-up to avoid delaying treatment.
