Brief Answer:
Avoid medication

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I would recommend not to use any medication for a 1 month old baby.

Noisy breathing is usual in infants due to secretions in the oral cavity or pharynx. Giving medications may help the baby with breathing but can result in unwanted side effects.

Try medications only if the baby is running fever.

Regards,
