How do I choose the right cold medicine for my child s symptoms?

Go to the pharmacy and ask the clerk inside, and they will recommend the most suitable cold medicine for you.

My family usually has a small crack, and I feel that this cold medicine is *** small for children, and the effect is good.

It depends on the specific situation, so it's best to go to the hospital and consult a doctor.

We use cold patches for common colds, throat clearing patches for viral colds, antibiotics plus throat clearing patches for bacterial infections, try not to take medicine, and take medicine at the same time to eat some probiotics to protect the lower stomach, especially for babies under three years old

I am a Buddhist parent who doesn't like to feed the doll with medicine, and I only feed water for a small cold, and if it is really serious, I will send it to the hospital. ‍‍

Look at the severity of the cold, and then choose the appropriate cold medicine according to the symptoms of the cold.

If it is determined that the child has a common cold, it is best to use no medicine, at most use some antipyretics when the fever is hot, the key is to drink more water, rest well, give the child time to immunity, and let the disease heal itself.

You can consult a medical professional, after all, the child's body is weak, and it is best to take medication under the guidance of medical staff.

When the child was still a child, as soon as he had a cold, his wife hurriedly took him to the hospital to see, and when he came back, he brought back several medicines. After that, I looked up some information, and as far as I know, colds are roughly divided into three categories: wind heat, wind cold, and viral.

Distinguish these classifications, so as to prescribe the right medicine, because the general cold medicine will explain which type of cold it is, and the wrong one will aggravate the cold. Wind heat and cold are easy to judge, most of them are caused by tonsil inflammation, accompanied by sore throat, thick nose, thick phlegm, nasal congestion, generally I don't buy any medicine, just pull a few Houttuynia cordata in a flower pot and boil water to drink, sleep up, the symptoms will be reduced a lot. If there is no Houttuynia cordata, it will also be paired with plantain, Gotogen kortu, and a little red, and the effect is also good, but it is not as good as the anti-inflammatory effect of Houttuynia cordata.

Wind chill is often a cold caused by a cool breeze after sweating, which we call it"Sweating", accompanied by cough, mucus, phlegm, I often use brown sugar boiled ginger to drink hot, in the early stage of the cold cold, the effect is still good. ‍‍

Many diseases are manifested by colds, in the end the root disease is not a cold, we must closely observe, the cold for more than a week has no signs of improvement, actively seek medical treatment, seek professional judgment, so as not to delay the condition. ‍‍

In the case of influenza, antivirals** are required, such as oseltamivir phosphate (Tamiflu) ribavirin (Neobolin); There are also many antiviral Chinese patent medicines, such as Pudilan oral liquid, Lanqin oral liquid, etc. However, Pudilan has recently added a description of adverse reactions, so it is also necessary to pay attention to it when applying, but it does not prevent normal use. ‍‍

The daily care of children with common cold is to keep warm, drink more, clean up the nose in time, maintain personal hygiene, and can be cured in 3-5 days without the use of drugs. If the symptoms are slightly severe, you can take some compound children's cold medicines, such as paediatric aminophen xanthamine granules. However, because it is a compound preparation, the ingredients contained in it contain a certain amount of ***, so it is not recommended for long-term use. ‍‍

I haven't thought about this, anyway, I sold a lot of things to the baby, and now the more commonly used is the small crack, I personally think that the effect of the children's cold medicine is about the same, but the packaging of this small crack is very intimate, it is packaged in bags, which makes people feel that this manufacturer is really thinking about the baby, so he is also assured of his quality, but people do have a good effect. ‍‍

There are many kinds of pediatric cold medicines on the market now, and channel pharmacies may be dazzled.
