Hi, Thank you for asking question on health care magic. Persistent cough for more than one month suggests that it may be whooping cough. You also have to exclude bronchiolitis as well as asthma. It is difficult to come to a conclusion without seeing the patient. better consult pediatrician and take proper treatment. Erythromycin is the drug of choice for whooping cough. Hope this answer will serve your purpose Please feel free to ask any more queries if required Take care Dr.M.V.Subrahmanyam MD;DCH Associate professor of pediatrics
