Should the baby with bronchitis take Cefixime or Azithromycin?

Patient's question:

A long time ago, due to inadequate treatment for the baby's cold, the child developed bronchitis. Today, I noticed the baby coughing again, and it seems like the bronchitis has returned. We only have Cefalexin and Azithromycin at home. I want to ask which one works better for the baby's bronchitis?

Doctor's answer:

If a child experiences oral ulcers again, it may be due to biting their mouth while eating, or it could be that they have recently consumed a lot of foods that are hard on the stomach, or perhaps they are lacking in essential trace elements. It is best to take the child to the hospital for a check-up. In the meantime, you can apply some anti-inflammatory medications externally as appropriate. Please follow the doctor's advice regarding medication. Additionally, you can give the child more fruits daily to aid digestion and provide vitamin supplements.
