Patient's question:
Three weeks ago, it suddenly got hot. I checked for tonsillitis, and later I started having a fever. After the fever subsided, I still couldn't stop coughing. I took a lot of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, such as Xia'er Magan Granules, Xia'er Kechuan Ling Granules, Xia'er Qingfei Liangxue Koufuye, Clindamycin, Cephalexin, and Cefixime (medication), but none of them helped. Now I'm still coughing, and it's worse at night when I'm sleeping. I cough all night, even vomiting. It's really making me anxious!Doctor's answer:
What medicine should be taken for a persistent cough? The symptoms mentioned above are likely indicative of allergic cough, which may be triggered by allergens such as pollen, paint, or shellfish.Guidance: For medication treatment, it is recommended to actively address allergies for better relief. Cetirizine drops can be used for treatment and management.
Lifestyle care: Drink plenty of water, consume more fruits, vegetables, and digestive vitamins, and avoid a meat deficiency or picky eating. Snacks should not be used frequently.
