Can Ascoril LS Syrup Be Given For Cough In A 4 Year Old?
Hello doc my son is 4 yrs old with 15kg wt. he is having cough for the past week We let it go.but there is no relief for him. Last time doctor gave me one ventryl D syrup. Shall I continue that or should I give as ascoril ls + for easing him the cough. Please advice
Hi... as the kid is now about 3 years, you can use promethazine syrup if it is dry cough. This is a first generation anti allergic also. So this will take care of cold also. But this is a prescription drug and you will require a doctor's prescription for it.
Ascoril LS is a combination drug which is used for wheezing. Usually I do not prefer using combination medicines for cough and cold.
