A four-year-old baby with a cold and cough has a rattling sound while eating medicine. The cough has lessened but the baby is still wheezing.

Patient's question:

On November 5th, I had a fever of 38 degrees and went to the clinic for an injection. After being treated for a day, the fever went down, but I still had a cough and had to take more injections for three more days. Later, I was given Hydrochlorothiazide Ambroxol and Amoxicillin, but it didn't work. I then took 999 Cold Relief, Children's Cough and Asthma Relief, and Cefixime for two days. The cough has lessened, and it's not as forceful, but I can hear wheezing. Can I continue taking the medicine?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, as you mentioned, pneumonia is a common disease in children, but the younger the child, the more likely they are to develop complications such as high fever, shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing. It is recommended to administer azithromycin to the child for a week of treatment, and at the same time, they can take some pneumonia granules.
