What Is The Remedy For Severe Cough With Phlegm And Wheezing?
Hi Doctor,
My son 8 and half years old is suffering from cough for the last days and it triggers wheezing. He has history of bronchial asthma and he has been ok for quite sometime now. We are giving him Bronchipret syrup 5 ml twice a day and nebuliser to control wheezing. There is no fever. The cough is not stopping. Should we continue the same medicine for 5 days or any change required to bring his cough under control. He has phlegm which is not coming out..pl advise.

Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
You can continue the medicine for anoither 5 days, the syrup helps to control the cough and the nebulization helps to control your son wheeze.
In adddition to this he may require a course of oral antibiotics in the form of syrup and oral antihistamine.
I would have suggested my patients with
1. Syrup Bactoclav 375mg twice daily for 5 days
2.Syrup T Minic thrice daily for 5 days.
You can take these medicines and the medicine prescribed your doctor and inform him regarding these medicines.
Thank You.
