Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children2 years agoA. Cold most of the time is a viral illness where there could be running nose sneezing along with cough and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration . steam inhalation will also be useful in this .
cough needs to be treated with anti allergic and expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be used once a proper evaluation bykk the doctor is done and according to the type of cough its prescribed.
if any fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the temperature and the dose can be repeated again after 6 hours if required .
RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl2 years agoA. Sinarist paediatric drops can be given to the child. As of now you can go ahead with giving five drops three times in a day for three days and also if required, you can give steam to the child indirectly twice a day. This is what is also going to be helpful.
