A. Hi Antibiotics are mostly give it in two cases when there is a severe infection that a child is having which cannot be cured with regular medicines and sometimes it is only given when there is no other cure apart from antibiotics so that’s why it’s for regular issues for cold and cough they give regular medicines only not antibiotics
