Is Rhinathiol Syrup The Right Medicine For Cough In A Child?

Hi doctor, my 6 months baby has had a cough for 2 months now, i would like to give her Rhinathiol syrup for babies because i have tried several syrups and even examined her thinking that she had a serious sickness may be but the results were ok. i have used Rhinathiol syrup for adults but it worked so effectively, Please advise if this is recommended at that age.

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Rhinathiol syrup is contraindicated in children less than 2 years.
Cough for 2 months in 6 months baby may be Bronchiolitis, Pertusis,or it may be hyperactive air way disease.
Difficult pronounce diagnosis without actually examining the baby.
Better consult pediatrician for thorough investigation and treatment.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
