[|Human|] Hi Doctor , My son is 22 months old and weighs 11kgs . Recently he has been coughing a lot (not dry cough) and had slight temperature last night. I called the pediatrician and he advised us to give 2.5ml of Ambrolite-D, 3 times a day . Will that be ok. What is the difference between Ambrolite S and D ? Regards, Gokul
[|AI|]  Thanks for posting your query at Chat Doctor. Your son has a respiratory tract infection. Usually it is caused due to a virus and has an allergic component associated. Both Absolute D and Absolute S are safe to be given. Dose is ok. Absolute S contains aerosol, guaiphenesin and albuterol whereas Absolute D contains Cetirizine, Dextromethorphan, Pseudocode Chat Doctor.  The actions are similar. The main difference is due to the albuterol which is a bronchodilator that helps in widening the airway tracts when there are spasms that cause wheezing. Hope that I have been able to add
