When a child has a cough with audible sounds from the throat, timely symptomatic treatment is necessary. If a severe secondary bacterial infection occurs, antibiotics such as amoxicillin granules may be taken orally. When children exhibit allergic symptoms, macrolide medications can be administered. During treatment, ensure the child drinks plenty of water to help expel phlegm.
