How Can Runny Nose And Breathing Difficulty In A Child Be Treated?
Hi doctor, My son is 4 years old and since the last 3 days is coughing and have a bit runny noise, he wokeup in the middle of the night and he can’t breathe with a hard cough. I gave him butaline syrup around 3 ML so he can sleep again until tomorrow morning i take him to hospital. Do u think butaline is a good mediicne to make him breath right and sleep until morning ?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Breathing in steam for your child it may moisten a scratchy throat and nose, as well as loosen your congestion. Butaline syrup is okay to use 2-3 times a day but don't use it more than 5 days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
