[|Human|] Hi Doctor,My 9mo old daughter is having cough and cold from last one week. My paed has given cepodem, bronchet, alerid and livolyn. I am not seeing any significant improvement.I have visited twice to the doc, initially she was put on alerid with livolyn and no antibiotic.But, now even on cepodem, she is not showing any improvement. She is coughing badly in night. Also, her voice got changed now. It seems she is having some throat infection. Please help..
[|AI|]  Most of the cough and cold in child Chat Doctor.  Antibiotics are ineffective in case of viral infections, and it takes 5-10 days to resolve on its own irrespective of the use of antibiotics. It generally has an allergic component which can be relieved by the use of antiallergics like Syrup Relent 2.5 ml once daily for a few days. It will also help in diluting the cough and provide relief. Give her steam inhalation. Just sit with the child on your lap and place the source of steam before you. The vapor will be in the air and automatically the child will breathe it in. It will also have a soothing effect on the sore throat. Please wait for a few more days, and soon it should be fine again.
