How to deal with a child's persistent cough

Patient's question:

Recently, the child has coughed again. The baby has been coughing for a long time, and has seen both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, but there is no improvement. How should I deal with the child's recurrent cough?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, central nervous system depressants are generally not suitable for children. Cough medicines for children should be selected that have both expectorant and effects. Syrups are better than tablets. After taking the syrup, it adheres to the mucous membrane of the throat, reducing the stimulating effect on the mucous membrane, and can achieve the purpose of cough suppression itself. When taking it, do not dilute it with water, nor do you need to take it with water.
