whooping cough(pertussis) causes sever cough with gasping like condition during aggressive cough. start with Syrup Azithromycin 10mg/kg single dose for 5 days.
also give azithromycin for 5 days to all house hold contacts for prevention.dont forget to get your child vaccinated later on and give him a mask to cover his mouth.continue with a bronchodilator like asthalin or theoasthalin. nebulization with asthalin will give him good relief
