Best treatment for a common cold in infants over 2 months old
My baby has been coughing a lot recently. He is only two months old and has had a cough and runny nose every day; I'm very worried. The doctor said it's a common cold. So, what is the best treatment for a cold in a baby who is over two months old?
Doctor's answer (1)
Hello, a two-month-old infant developing a cold may be related to weak immunity and subsequent viral or bacterial infections after being chilled. The infant can be actively treated with medications such as infant cold and heat-clearing granules, ribavirin granules, and ibuprofen suspension. If there is a concurrent bacterial infection, further treatment may include additional administration of amoxicillin granules or cefaclor granules. Meanwhile, ensure the baby stays warm to avoid further chilling, and manage the quantity and frequency of milk feeding. We hope the above information is helpful to you. Wishing you a pleasant life.
