Terrible Cough And Cold, Prescribed Opox, Alex. Still Coughing, Then Took Omnacortil. Is This Allergic ?

Hi, My 2.9 year old repeatedly is getting this terrible cough and cold... 2 weeks before the doctor had prescribed him Opox-cv, Alex P 5ml, twice daily*3 days... He was just recovering when one week later he again had this terrible cough, weezing and he has this bouts of cough while he is sleeping and he used to puke... The doc suggested me synclar syp twice daily for 4 days (5ml) syp bnonzeet (2.5ml) for 4 days and omnacortil 5ml, twice daily for 3 days. Now again in 8 days he has this cough... It is raining here in mumbai... Is this because of the season? Is he allergic to something, if yes how will i come to know, any test to determine that?

My son was incidentally diagonsed with bicuspid aortic valve with mild Aortic stenosis. But the Pead. Cardiologist after a 2g echo said there was nothing to worry as his heart was functioning normally with minimal obstruction, even his chest was absolutely clear. My son weighs 13 kgs.

Hi, Most likely it is allergic. In its management inspite of adding omnacortil better you have added nebulization with athalin-tds, budecort 0.5 mg bd, ipravent 4 times a day and syp levocetirizine+montelukast alog with antacid syp. Try these with consultation with your local doctor. If there is nasal obstruction try with nasoclear drops/ anti allergic nasal spray. it is most likely that with all this your kid will be all right.
