What kind of medicine can help relieve children's cough?

Patient's question:

Feeling a bit unwell, but not sure what's wrong. Please ask: What medicine should children take for cough to improve?

Doctor's answer:

The baby just has a cough, and it is suspected to be caused by respiratory inflammation. At night, the parasympathetic nervous system is activated, so the cough may be relieved (this is a physiological reason).
Second: If it is a mild cough, you can use Snake Gland and Fritillaria Root Oral Liquid or Huanglian Decoction for treatment.
Third: If the cough is accompanied by phlegm, you can use Lung-Clearing Syrup, Yanbian Granules, or Huanglian Decoction for treatment.
Fourth: Life care. Encourage the baby to drink more water. If the cough is severe at night or in the early morning, you can give the baby some pears (pears cooked with honey) at this time. It can also help reduce fire, resolve phlegm, and alleviate cough.
For severe cases of children's cough, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Do not switch to new medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect. The above suggestions are for reference only.
I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you.
