A child who is given antibiotics very will often need them more and more as they suppress the bodies natural immunity. Both you and the doctor are jointly responsible for this situation. You are responsible because worry about your child makes you seek the doctor every so often. The doctor is responsible because he cannot withstand your pressurizing him to prescribe strong Chat Doctor.  Be aware of this trap. As you said, you are also using Astoria in addition to the antibiotic. Why Astoria? Does she have more than a simple cough and cold? Is there fast breathing? Phlegm (productive cough)? If those problems are present, then she can keep getting this problem every month or even more frequently. You should go back to the doctor and request him to do tests on your daughter to understand the problem better. They should consider referring you to a senior pediatrician, a pediatric chest physician or an allergologist. I hope this helps.
