What anti-inflammatory medicine should be used for baby's cough

In the process of taking care of a baby, what the mother is most worried about is that the baby may suffer from some diseases. Coughing is a disease that babies are more likely to suffer from, especially during the change of seasons. Due to the large changes in temperature, it is easy to stimulate the baby's respiratory system and cause the baby to cough. When the baby coughs, he should go to the hospital for examination in time. The mother cannot buy some medicine for the baby at will.

1. Pay attention to your baby's cough and go to the hospital for examination in time to rule out inflammation. Especially in autumn and winter, coughing can easily cause respiratory inflammation. To eliminate inflammation, under the doctor's advice, give your baby pediatric cough and phlegm-relieving oral liquid, Hutong and other medications. In addition, you can eat some lung-moisturizing foods, such as radish, lily, pear, etc.

2. Babies are generally not suitable for using centrally acting antitussive drugs, such as: Kebiqing, Kemifen, etc. The respiratory system of infants and young children is not yet fully developed, with poor cough reflex, narrow airway lumen, abundant blood vessels, poor ciliary movement, and sputum.

Easy to discharge. If a stronger cough suppressant is given as soon as a cough occurs, the cough will be temporarily stopped, but the contraction and peristalsis of the bronchial smooth muscle will be inhibited, sputum cannot be discharged smoothly, and the respiratory function will be affected.

4. In addition, you can give your baby some cough syrup. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, coughs are divided into hot coughs, cold coughs, cold coughs and internal injury coughs. When choosing Chinese herbal cough syrup, it must be taken according to the symptoms due to its different medicinal properties, which can be cold, hot, warm or cool. For children's cough, it is suitable to use cough suppressants that have both expectorant and phlegm-resolving effects. Syrups are better than tablets. After taking the syrup, it adheres to the pharyngeal mucosa, reducing the irritation to the mucosa and can achieve the antitussive purpose by itself. Taking the syrup directly has a better antitussive effect.

For common coughs, the main focus should be on expectoration. Do not simply use cough suppressants, and do not take excessive amounts of cough syrup. Currently, most of the children's cough syrups produced in my country contain ephedrine hydrochloride, platycodon fluid extract, ammonium chloride, phenobarbital and other drug ingredients, and excessive use will have side effects. Especially if the baby takes too much ephedrine hydrochloride, he will experience poisoning reactions such as dizziness, vomiting, increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, irritability and even shock. Therefore, do not abuse cough syrup for your baby, otherwise it will be harmful to your baby's health. Parents should give their babies medicine according to the doctor's instructions.

If the child's cough becomes more and more severe and affects his sleep, he needs to go to the hospital and ask the doctor to help choose antibiotic treatment.

When your baby has a cough, in addition to choosing drug treatment, diet therapy can be used as an auxiliary treatment for better results.
