How To Treat Cough And Cold In Kids?
Dear Sir,
This is for my son, 8 years old, 27 kg weight, has been suffering from fever and cough for 4 days. I have consulted with a pediatrician and she prescribed KLAVOX, NEAORIN, MUCOSOLVAN and FEVEDOL. Fever didn’t come down and temperature rose up to 39degree C. aging I took him to hospital yesterday night because of the temperature and doctor prescribed for some injection, blood test, nebulization, and x-ray (chest). According to doctor, she says that the blood test reports are ok, and some minor cough conjunction in the chest. She says it could be a viral fever and again prescribed another medicine of TAMIFLUE, and COUGH syrup and suppositor.
The temperature was 39.2 degree in the morning and I have given a suppository and wipe the complete body with water.
Afternoon also the same temperature of 39.2 degree was there. And I have given the suppositorr.
Sir, could you tell me is he OK? Should I consult with some other doctor? Please advise.

Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns.
I can't get the reason why they gave NEAORIN to him?
Other drugs are good, and if this is a viral disease, he will get better in 7-10 days. Keep him nebulized and you should try cold sponging to reduce fever more frequently. Paracetamol three times a day is good to take fever down. Don't miss the dose.
If fever doesn't come down in 24 hours, take him to the Emergency Room for proper care for fever and all that.
Have a wonderful time ahead. Hope I answered all of your questions. Let me know if you have any further clinical concerns. I will be happy to get back to you shortly.
Regards!
