Exhausting cough in a child - what to do?
The daughter is 11 years old and from Tuesday takes amotaks dis 750 mg, syrup unituss chlorquinaldin and nebbud 0.5 The doctor said that the child is sick but what I do not know because she did not say. The daughter has a cough like from a well, nothing and nothing has changed since taking antibiotics, the only thing that does not hurt my throat and does not fever. When she was 2-6 years old, she often had such a cough that she ended up in the hospital. The last years have been a bit calm, but now nothing breaks this cough. I'm starting to get nervous

We have such a cough daughter 7 years old mipalpa for 5 days. Auscultation was clean, she was examined by 5 doctors in the meantime because we went to different ones. She had a non-stop fever during that time of 38.5. We ended up in the hospital with dehydration. They were doing a combo test (available at the pharmacy, ironically) and the Rsv virus came out. Inaudible through a stethoscope. Hospitalization week. Finishing the antibiotic at home and a month off school. Now, after additional tests, it turned out that the child has an allergy, hence such a strong cough reflex during infections, much stronger than in siblings

In the body of the question, you mention that the doctor recommended Unitus Junior syrup - it is a medicine containing levodropropizine - a substance used in the symptomatic treatment of dry (unproductive) cough. In the case of this type of cough, in contrast to wet (productive) cough, there is no phenomenon commonly referred to as "detachment of secretions". The cessation of sore throat and fever is a good sign. Dry, tiring cough may persist for several days after the acute symptoms of infection have ceased. However, if you are concerned about your child's health, please make an appointment for a follow-up. The doctor, after auscultation of the lungs, will be able to determine whether the treatment process is proceeding properly. If you have a problem with making an appointment with your doctor, you can use a remote consultation with a pediatrician: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja/z-pediatra I encourage you to read the text: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/kaszel-suchy-i-mokry-jak-go-leczyc
