Pediatrician,  's  Response
Thanks for follow up. It seems your twins have viral infection . We have 2linds syrups: chemical and natural, you can choose ambroxol syrup or kuka with tulsi. In addition natural syrups can do anti-inflammatory effects, decreasing temperature, relieve sore throat .You can use any, I propose Kuka 1/2 teaspoon 2 times . The second very good choice is nebulizer therapy, babies can inhalate ambroxol , physiological solution and other. At home you can also do soda steam inhalation.

Best regards
Have a nice day
