Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
For children with bacterial infection and cough, parents can administer penicillin antibiotics under a doctor's guidance, such as amoxicillin granules. Additionally, cough medications like citrus red granules can be used concurrently for symptomatic relief. If the condition is severe, antibiotic treatment via intravenous injection may also be considered.
