  My child has been taking medicine for a cold and cough for five days
  My child has been taking medicine for a cold and cough for five days now, and has taken pediatric cough granules and cephalexin.Thank you.
  Routinely, most coughs in children are colds, so cephalosporin antibiotics should not be applied blindly, but only when a bacterial infection is clearly present.If the clinical symptoms have subsided significantly, you can consider stopping the antibiotics.
  Children cough as long as there are mainly infectious factors causing it, such as bacteria, viruses, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, etc.Symptoms such as fever, cough, sputum and shortness of breath can occur. Antibiotic treatment is usually required for 5-7 days, and you are advised to continue taking it for about three more days.
  If your child still has a cough, you can continue to take cefixime for two more days, while drinking more warm water, boil some pear water to drink to moisten the lungs and relieve cough, pay attention to a light diet, easy to digest, eat more vegetables, do not eat fried, greasy, not easy to digest food
