Does Mucolite Effect The Immunity Of Child?
Does Mucolite effect the immunity of a child of 20 months. Whenever the Kido has cough we try giving mucolite and it works and heals. Last week had severe cough so started mucolite and it worked but again this week she is not well having cough. Is it advisable to start Mucolite again?

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Mucolyte helps in dissolving the mucous and expels it.
It does not affect the immunity of the baby.
You may mucolyte again if required.
Better consult pediatrician for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
