Hi ! My son is 5 months old. He has cold and cough for last 2 weeks. At first we are prescribed sinarest drops and ascoril syrup. Later Doc told it is bronchitis and prescribed asthalin and omnacortil syrup. Still he has not improved. I am worried whether i should go to another doc or should i wait ? Are these medicines right for his condition ? Thanks in advance !
Thanks for consulting. Your child suffer 2 weeks. It seems he has acute obstructive bronchitis. If I were your doctor I would prescribe you antibiotic, which can treat inflammation and nebulizer inhalation. What you wait at home? If you don't see effect then go to hospital and do inhalation with albuterol, aerosol or Pulmicort or fluticasone, because when medicine will go inside of lungs then you will see real effect. Special vibrational massage is also helpful 3 times during 5 min, baby will cough easier. You should do x-ray examination of lungs for excluding pneumonia, because it is often complication of bronchitis, check blood test, urinalysis for excluding complications from side of kidney. Take care am I wishing you speedy recovery Chat Doctor.
