What relieves the cough in a 4 year old?
Patient: Hi, My 4 year kid(Weight 17.5 kg) is having cough for 25 days and we used Sporidex AF 375, twice a day for 8 days along with Relent(2.5) twice a day and Phenergan 2.5 once in night for 8 days. But still cough and flum persists. Now doctor prescribed Azithral 200 (2.5) once a day for 10 days along with Phenergan. Any suggestions please? I think he is having upper bhroncal respiratory .... etc .... Doctor: Brief answer :Pertusis. Detailed answer :Hi, welcome to HCM. Your child is probably suffering from pertusis. Pertusis usually takes time to relieve, usually it takes 2 weeks time. Azithral is correctly prescribed, continue it, i am sure that it will help. Take care.
