What medicine is better for children with dry cough? What are the causes of children's dry cough?

Nowadays, children are the hope of every family, and parents are doing their best to take care of their children. Although parents do their best to take care of their children, sometimes children will be invaded by some diseases. Children's dry cough is a common disease in children. For children's dry cough, you can use some commonly used prescription drugs such as cefaclor granules, or some commonly used over-the-counter drugs such as cough syrup.

Although parents take good care of their children, due to some reasons, children sometimes still have some problems, such as dry cough. Parents are anxious when children have dry coughs, and want to know what medicine to use for children's dry coughs? Let's take a look at what medicine to take for children's dry coughs.

Children can take some commonly used prescription drugs for dry cough. Commonly used prescription drugs for children's dry cough generally include cefaclor granules, amoxicillin clavulanate potassium granules and compound licorice tablets. These types of commonly used prescription drugs generally have a faster effect on children's dry cough and the effect time is relatively short. When children have dry coughs, as long as we go to the hospital to see a doctor and confirm the diagnosis, we can use these drugs. However, these commonly used prescription drugs have a disadvantage, that is, they have certain side effects. Therefore, when children use these drugs for dry cough, they must pay attention to the usage, dosage and contraindications. Take them according to the doctor's instructions and do not increase the dosage by yourself.

Children can take some common over-the-counter medicines for dry cough. The over-the-counter medicines used for children's dry cough generally include honeysuckle granules, cough syrup and cough-clearing tablets. These medicines have a certain effect on treating children's dry cough and are effective in relieving dry cough. However, the effect of this type of medicine takes a little longer. Over-the-counter medicines also have the advantage that the side effects are relatively smaller.

In addition to taking these medicines, there are some dietary treatments that are very effective for children's dry coughs. White radish has a very good effect on children's dry coughs. The method of use is to squeeze the white radish into juice, put it in a container, and then add an appropriate amount of rock sugar. Then steam the rock sugar and white radish juice in water, and when the rock sugar is completely melted, take it out and let it cool. The white radish rock sugar water can be made for children to drink a cup every night before going to bed. Drinking it for about five consecutive days will relieve the child's dry cough symptoms.
