Recurrent Cold and Cough



Yesterday, I decided to take my daughter to the pediatrician to check her because of her recurrent persistent cold and cough.  Her cold is on and off for almost two months. Although she already taken an antibiotic, co-amoxiclav natrovox last month.  Me and my husband is always caution in giving antibiotic because we know that this can be harmful since good bacteria will also destroy.  The pedia suspects that she has an asthma and allergy so she gave four types of medicines such as Loradine Phenylephrine HCI, Meptin, Prednisone 10 and co-amoxiclav.  These medicines should be take twice a day for five days except her antibiotic, co-amoxiclav to be take for seven days.  On the fifth day, she will have her follow-up check up to see if there is an improvement. The pedia said that if there is no improvement, she will have an x-ray to properly diagnose the cause of her cold and cough.

As a mother, I really worried when I feed my daughter with many medicines but I don’t have a choice but to give her in order to treat her illnesses. I just hope that after five days of taking her medicines, her condition will be improved.
