Patient's question:
What kind of anti-inflammatory medicine should a child with a cold and cough take? The cough has lasted for four or five days. Since the child is young, it's important to use a medicine with minimal side effects.Doctor's answer:
Mommy, you can use traditional Chinese medicine anti-inflammatory drugs for her, such as Xiao'er Baicao Powder or Houshi'er Xianqiao Granules. These are all acceptable. If the effect is not good, cephalosporin antibiotics or penicillin antibiotics are relatively more effective with fewer side effects. It is not necessary to give her a combination of lung-cleaning and blood-cooling drugs, such as Ambroxol Oral Solution or Acetylcysteine Granules.
