Patient's question:
Our child has had a cold and cough for almost a week, and it's not getting better. Could you please tell us what anti-inflammatory medicine is suitable for children with a cold and cough?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on the situation you described, it seems that the child needs to take anti-inflammatory medication for cough. It is essential to have clear evidence of a bacterial infection before giving the child oral anti-inflammatory medication. Commonly used anti-inflammatory medications include Amoxicillin or Cephalosporin-based anti-inflammatory drugs. However, the specific dosage and usage of the medication should be determined according to the doctor's advice. In home care, it is important to remind the child to drink more warm water to prevent catching a cold.
