Cough-variant asthma in children cannot be completely cured. When the aforementioned symptoms occur, they may result from familial genetic factors or exposure to allergens, making complete cure extremely difficult.
Once symptoms appear, parents can administer bronchodilator medications to their child under a physician’s guidance—such as aminophylline tablets or montelukast sodium chewable tablets—to alleviate these symptoms.
