Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
Baby's common cold with fever and runny nose can be treated with cold medications under the guidance of a doctor. Commonly used medications include感冒清热颗粒 (Cold Relief and Heat-Clearing Granules) and小儿速热清颗粒 (Pediatric Rapid Heat-Clearing Granules), which can help relieve exterior symptoms, disperse wind, and clear heat toxins. If fever is present and the body temperature is above 38.5°C, antipyretic medications such as ibuprofen suspension can be used in combination.
