Child Hood Asthmatic, Frequent Upper Respiratory Infection, Dry Cough. Any Medication For Dry Cough ?
My daughter is 5 years 11 months old; she is having child hood asthma. We are unable to provide the antiallergic medicine like anti histamine drug. She got frequently infection in upper respiratory tract. We found that her nasal secretion is very low. Afte taking the antibiotic 3 days, there is no secretion and it change into dry cough. We are unable to provide the antiallergic medicine that time, it may be more more prblroblemtic. Doctor prescribes Ambrolite- + asthalin and budecort nibulization two times a day. We found that broncodilator may give her relief. What medication she can take during infection? What medication she can take during the time of dry cough? What will be the suggestion for her during the thime of dry cough. What should be preventive for her in the normal day? Is the gargle once or two time a day will be helpful? When this problem will go or continue whole life?

Welcome to Health Care magic
Hope you are doing good , if you meant to say that you daughter is known asthmatic , you should follow the protocol as prescribed by the doctor.
Asthma can be tough to diagnose because symptoms vary from child to child. But a wheezing cough, which may get worse at night, is one of many asthma symptoms. Treatment for asthma depends on what's causing it, and may include avoiding triggers like pollution, smoke, or perfumes. to re- correct the underlying cause she wont have have the asthmatic attack.
If she is not having any symptom related to asthma just use suspension for dry cough. it more then enough for her like Antitussives syrup available in your country with local trade names.
I hope have answered your query
Regards
