He has had this in the past, which they gave him neb? treatments but he will not sit long enough to benefit at home, what should we do? Thank you, concerned grandma
If the cough is distressing and not being relieved with oral medicines you require to give him nebulization with leveling 4 times daily. A short course of SYR Omnacortil 4ml twice daily will also help. But if he is repeatedly acquiring these cough you need to put him on regular medications like Montage LC 4 mg daily for 3 months.
