Patient's question:
Child has a cold for 4 days, how many times a day to drink azithromycin syrup? How many milliliters to drink?Doctor's answer:
If the child is diagnosed with a cold, they may not need to take azithromycin, as azithromycin is primarily used to treat mycoplasma and bacterial infections. It is recommended to focus on taking cold medicine to treat the condition, while also drinking plenty of hot water, getting plenty of rest, and maintaining a light diet. If there is a suspicion of mycoplasma or bacterial infection, azithromycin may be necessary. In such cases, azithromycin should be taken once daily, with a dosage of 10 mg per kilogram of body weight.
