How long should child allergic cough take medicine

Drug 1: kebiqing (weijingning, pentoverine). It is mainly used for dry cough caused by upper respiratory tract inflammation, and its curative effect on infants is better than that of adults. Taking medicine once can maintain the curative effect for 4-6 hours, but it is not suitable for babies with phlegm.

Drug 2: compound kebiqing syrup. Because it contains ammonium chloride for resolving phlegm, it is especially suitable for babies with difficulty in expectoration, but should be used with caution for those with heart failure.

Drug 3: Aishu (Yufen pseudoephedrine oral solution). The drug not only has the dual mechanism of expectoration and antitussive, but also can relieve the postnasal drip syndrome caused by nasal obstruction and runny nose, so that the baby can avoid the trouble of long-term cough.
