5 yo coughing. can self medicate? what medicine off the shelf is gd for cough?

I will suggest bring your 5yo to see doctor as we better don't self medicate. We don't understand the real problem and may give incorrect medicine.

Is advisable to bring him to see doctor. There are many types of cough, if you not properly treat his cough may get asthma. Take care.

if it is mild n no phelgm i would recommend prospan cough that can easily get from pharmacy.... it always works for my 5yo

Can get 猴枣散 from Chinese medical shop..can feed bb eat some Everyday..but better to ask how much to give to be first...

young children if they are sick better to see a doctor and have doctor advice in the medication.

Yu Ren Sheng kidz cough powder. Continuing feed 3 days . That's vr gd for child.

See a homeopath for natural remedies. Cough can lead to bronchitis. No joke.

can get houzousan from Chinese medical hall. get those with out Pearl.

Try Tussils 5 cough relief. Can get it from Guardian or pharmacies.

I think better bring to doctor or if u believe tcm can try tcm too
