, clearing away heat and calming the nerves. Used for colds, fever, headache, runny nose, cough and shortness of breath, sore throat, palpitations and irritability, and poor rash);

3. Cold and cough: Houzao Niuhuang San, Baoyingdan, Children's Cold Granules, Children's Qingfei Oral Liquid (Tongrentang), Children's Cough Syrup (Drool), Qingxuan Cough Syrup;

7. Commonly used anti-inflammatory drugs (antibiotics): Xi Ke Lao, azithromycin, amoxicillin, etc.;

8. Diarrhea: Mommy Love, Jinshuangqi, Smecta, Lactobacillus, Lizhu Changle, Dinggui Umbilical Patch (produced by Shanxi Yabao Pharmaceutical, the original Baby One Pie Ling. Currently, there are many diarrhea patches under the Dinggui brand, so be careful to distinguish them);

9. Repeated tonsillitis or enlargement of the tonsils for more than two degrees: Severe tonsillitis and enlarged tonsils (causing snoring during sleep, etc.) are basically ineffective with antibiotics;

Principles of medication for children: Avoid the abuse of antipyretics, antibiotics, etc. Doctors usually recommend: physical cooling if the temperature is below 38.5 degrees, taking antipyretics if it is above 38.5 degrees, and going to the hospital if it exceeds 39 degrees

, cooling should not be forced; now many very young children are recommended to undergo surgery by hospitals, such as tonsil surgery, adenoids surgery, etc. Remember: the human body has no redundant organs and they cannot be removed casually, especially important immune organs for children such as tonsils. Therefore, we must choose the lesser of two evils: if you can have an intravenous drip, try not to have an infusion; if you can have an injection, try not to have an infusion; if you can take medicine, try not to have an injection; if you can use Chinese medicine, try not to use Western medicine; if you can use an external application, try not to take it orally.

Nature is very magical. Maybe many germs will cause our babies to catch colds and never get better, but nature also has prepared many small methods suitable for babies to treat colds. However, these are all things we need to accumulate and learn from our own lives. As long as you are willing to spend more time and care for your baby, starting with the little things in life, your baby's illness can be prevented.
