Patient: Hi my 7month old doughter has a bad cough at night.it started when she was six months when she had to move to number two..at that time shd was taking infa care formula now we changed her to lactogen and she still have this cough at night and her tempereture is fine.should we change her to another formula?If yes please advise us which one will be best. Doctor: Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.  I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.  It is very unlikely that the formula is the cause of the cough.  This could, however, be a case of mild reflex.  Add a teaspoon of baby cereal to the bottle. This will often solve the problem. If it doesn't, contact your doctor.  Hope I have answered your query.  Let me know if I can assist you further.
