Suggest Treatment For Very Tight Chest And Runny Nose In Baby
Hi, my 11 month old boy has a very tight chesty cough and a very runny nose. Have taken him to the GP and was first given corryx and allecet. But I phoned her back after 3 days as it wasnt clearing up, so she added an antibiotic called ammoxil. Only been using antibiotic since yesterday. His chest still tight. Is there anything else I can use? Should I be concerned about the tight chest, as the phlem doesnt come out at all, just the runny nose.

Hi,
Welcome To Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern regarding to your child’s health.
Because having cough to your child, he feels tightness. I have seen number of patients of this type in my clinic. So, I would like to suggest you medicines, which gives relief in cough, thus decrease in tightness of chest.
Start syrup Pecef (if no allergy) 50 mg, 5 ml, 2 times in a day for 5 days. Give liquid Fabrex Plus (if no allergy), 5 ml, 3 times in a day, at the interval of 7-8 hours, for3-5 days. Add syrup S-Mucolyte (if no allergy) 2 ml, 3 times in a day, at the interval of 7-8 hours for 5-7 days. Also give liquid Levocet-M 2.5 ml, daily at night for 5 days. After doing all these things, if your child will not feel better then consult pediatrician.
After doing all these things, I hope your child will get well sooner and please share your review about my answer on healthcare magic.
Take Care,
Thank You.
