Sneezing, dry cough, watery eyes cold
Hello. My daughter is 4.6 years old. She has had dry cough, sneezing, cold, watery eyes from last evening. She has no fever. Temp was at 98.7. I'm not sure if I need to start antibiotics. Can I give her t minic syrup, piriton cs for dry cough and becomes and watch for a couple of days. Please advise. She has gas pains etc all the time and I'm worried the antibiotic may worsen it.
She's active and is normal except for the cold.
Also is 7 ml of t minic and piriton twice a day ok for her weight. It's 20 kgs. Please advise. Thank you.
Greetings to you. You are on right track. Continue triomimic for 1-2 days. No need to give antibiotics. I like and has proved to be effective, give Indian herbs . Make KADDA.Take 150ml of drinking water, +small piece of fresh crushed ginger,+3 black whole pepper,+3 cloves and boil it. to concentrate conccoction to 100ml . Cool it serve it warm. Twice a day. For 3-4 days. I am sure it will relieve your child's cold cough. You can add steam inhalation. Add vitC 500mg chewable tab off and on as a candy. You must add lots of fliuds to hydrate your child Give hot soups and lots of fresh fruits with lots of nutrients and antioxidants and vitamin and minerals. Keep ventillation in room. Allow exercises what ever baby can do..
