Patient's question:
The baby came down with hiccups and a runny nose yesterday morning, and it's the same today—tears and nose drips, stuffy nose, but in good spirits with no other symptoms. The doctor prescribed Acetaminophen/Pseudoephedrine/Chlorpheniramine Dispersible Tablets (III). I seem to have seen somewhere before that children should not use this medication. Does anyone know about this?Doctor's answer:
Baby has a runny noseWhen a baby experiences symptoms of a runny nose again, it is usually caused by catching a cold. In this case, we can use mugwort leaves or perilla leaves to give the baby a bath. The specific method is to place the mugwort or perilla leaves in the bathtub, then pour boiling water just cooked into it. Place the baby above the tub and first steam the baby with the steam of the medicinal water. Wait until the water temperature is suitable, then put the baby's feet in to soak.
