My daughter's been coughing since October and at first, it was just like any normal cough. After three days of this, we took her to see her pediatrician who prescribed some meds and antibiotics. She's basically been on one medication or another since then. We've even seen a few doctors, like a general physician, another pediatrician, and a pulmonologist, but nothing's working. She coughs so much at night that sometimes she ends up vomiting. We're really worried and feel helpless about her health. She's on an inhaler and other meds for her cough and cold right now. Can someone offer any advice for us concerned parents?

I'm giving my 18-month-old son Sinarest AF for his cold. I've been giving him 4ml three times a day for the past three days, and he seems to be getting better with it. I'm wondering if it's safe to continue using this medication in the future whenever he catches a cold. Is it okay to keep doing this?
Sinarest-AF is a combination medication that contains Paracetamol, Phenylephrine, and Chlorpheniramine. It is commonly used to relieve symptoms of cold and flu. In children, especially under 2 years old, the safety and efficacy of Phenylephrine and Chlorpheniramine are not well established. It is recommended to consult with a pediatrician before giving Sinarest-AF to children under 2 years old. For cold symptoms in children, it is important to focus on supportive care such as ensuring adequate rest, hydration, and a healthy diet. If your son has cold symptoms in the future, it is best to consult with a pediatrician for appropriate treatment options.
