How to treat a chronic cough?

click fraud protection

Good afternoon! My mom is out of town, sits a little niece, so a doctor for some time can not leave. Exposed to rain and she began coughing, after three weeks passed in paroxysmal. He then wet, then dry, cutting all possible drugs for all kinds of cough - does not help. I want to buy it Sumamed may have some other drug? She really can not speak, just cough beats, at night and during the day for no reason, no reason at all. In addition to the visit to the doctor, it is possible to make more?

Good afternoon!
It is not necessary to self-medicate, consult a doctor who will listen to good light and prescribe X-rays. Prolonged cough can be a symptom of protracted pneumonia, and it, as you know, can not be treated at home. Be sure to consult your general practitioner!
In this situation, most likely, will appoint antibacterial agent - Sumamed, Amoksiklav, Augmentin, usually for 3-5 days, 500 mg 2 times a day - a standard treatment regimen. It may be an extension of the course of 7-10 days.

Expectorant drugs such as NAC at 200 mg three times a day, syrup Gerbion expectorant 10 ml 3 times per day, Mucosolvan 10 ml and 3 times or about 1 tablet 3 times daily - one thing. Plus folk remedies - herbal tea with honey, raspberry, lemon, lime.
Painful cough can be removed antitussives - the same Gerbion, antitussive but at the same dose.
But, of course, correct treatment with your doctor. Radiography - a must!
