You can give tussin dmr for a dry cough. It seems the baby has an infection and the cough will be wet with sputum in a day or two when he will need expectorants.

Good evening, my doctor prescribed me bromhexine syrup but due to unavailability chemist substituted that with piriton expectorant (chlorpheniramine maleate+ammonium chloride+sodium citrate expectorant, which was previously banned by govt.

Asked for female, 34 years old from Indore

My 2.5 years old daughter is suffering from cough since 3 months now. It started in january end with runny nose cough and cold but no fever. We gave her tussin dmr for 3 days. No relief. So we gave her relent syrup for another 2 days after which she developed fever. We saw a doctor who prescribed piritexyl for 10 days and crocin sos. Fever withdrew in a week, coughing/sneezing lessened but continued. Saw the doctor again and he prescribed honeytuss for as long as needed with some home remedies - like warm water and steam inhalation. Cough lessened but did not go completely. Saw doctor again and he prescribed ascoril syrup. Gave this syrup too for a week. We started giving her sitopaladi talisadi with honey. But she still coughs in morning after getting up, sometimes during sleep and twice or thrice during day. She is active eats well plays well. But the cough does not seem to be going away completely. Doctors say that cough will go on its own. We should only be taking precautions. But I am worried as it is already 3 months now.

Asked for male, 34 years old from Bangalore

I have been suffering from dry cough for nearly a month now. On the 8th of December I had started 3 days Azithromycin antibiotic treatment with Ascoril D cough syrup and my cough subsided. Again it has resumed from the last couple of days and now again I have been suffering from severe cough from more than a week. I had Ascoril D (10 ml) twice daily which did not work and so switched to Alkof dx (7.5 ml). But nothing seems to work. Can I take another course of Azithromycin 3 tabs course although its been only 19 days since I had it last? please reply because due to this cough I am not even able to sleep at nights.
