General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Azithromicin is a very good antibiotic to treat respiratory tract infections.
I agree with your doctor about this treatment. I would recommend a mucolytic syrup such as Bisolvone syrup. I also recommend to give your child a lot of liquids and use a humidifier at home.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
