Children's cough can be treated with nebulization, because this treatment method can allow the mist medicine to enter the respiratory system directly, which has a fast effect and is effective in relieving cough, but it can also reduce the side effects of the medicine, free children from the pain of injections and drugs, and children's acceptance is relatively high.

1. Is it good to use nebulization for children’s cough?

When children cough, they can be treated with atomization. Because during atomization treatment, sputum can be diluted, which is conducive to the discharge of sputum. Moreover, the drug can be directly absorbed into the respiratory tract of children, and the effects of anti-inflammatory, cough relief and expectoration will be better. When children cough, atomization treatment can be performed, especially when children have cough symptoms caused by diseases such as tracheitis and pneumonia, atomization treatment is very helpful in improving the condition.

2. What are the benefits of cough nebulization for children?

1. Fast onset of effect

During nebulizer therapy, a high-pressure oxygen flow is used to turn the liquid into mist. The baby does not need to take the medicine, but inhales it directly into the respiratory tract through breathing and reaches the lungs, so this treatment is faster than oral medication.

2. Effective cough relief

Because during nebulization treatment, the nebulized medicine will directly enter the child's respiratory system, moisten the respiratory tract, and have a good dilution effect on sputum, so it has a good effect of anti-inflammatory, expectorant, antispasmodic and cough relief.

3. Reduce drug side effects

During aerosol therapy, the drug can be directly absorbed into the respiratory tract and does not need to enter the blood circulation system, so the toxic side effects on the body will be much smaller. The dosage of aerosol therapy is much lower than oral and injection, and is even only 1/10 of other drug administration methods. Because of the small dosage, the toxic side effects of the drug on the body will be significantly reduced, which is very important for infants and young children.

4. Avoid the pain of injections and medication

When many children are sick, they are particularly resistant to taking medicine and will cry when they are injected. In the case of nebulizer treatment, as long as the child wears a mask to breathe, the child is free from the pain of injection and medicine, and the child's acceptance is relatively high.
