A 14-month-old baby with a cold and flu: What medicine should they take?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't want to, either. I always can't sleep at night, and sometimes I feel my heart racing and feel quite uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. What medicine should a 14-month-old baby take if they catch a cold?

Doctor's answer:

According to your symptoms, it is mainly a viral cold, so treatment should be antiviral. You can take children's Aminophenol Maleate Granules, Ribavirin, and other antiviral medications. Drink plenty of water. You can also try feeding Ganlike and Mahang Granules. Additionally, get a blood test done. If the blood test results are high, you may need antibiotic treatment. Azithromycin works well. Make sure the baby drinks plenty of water. If there is a fever, you can take ibuprofen suspension orally. Wishing the baby a speedy recovery.
