In the treatment of children's COVID-19, we only need to pay attention to the right medicine, cooling for the first three days and eliminating phlegm later.
1. If the child has a fever,
It is recommended to prepare acetaminophen and ibuprofen. Please note:
(1) can only be used in general. If the high fever persists, you can take two antipyretics alternately. It is generally not recommended to use each antipyretic more than 4 times in 24 hours. If the drug does not last for 4 hours and you start to have a fever, you can change to another one.
(2) Children with a history of febrile convulsions-it is recommended to start taking medicine at 38 degrees Celsius; Children with no history of febrile convulsions-it is recommended to start taking medicine at 38.5 degrees Celsius.
(3) If the body temperature drops below 37.5 degrees Celsius, it is not recommended to take antipyretics again.
2. If the child has a dry cough in the early stage.
It is suggested to prepare Compound compound pholcodine oral solution and Feilike Oral Liquid, which can be used alone or in combination with Xiaoer Kechuanling or Bai Rui Granules. Children over 2 years old can take montelukast sodium chewable tablets before going to bed to reduce airway inflammation. Drugs should be taken according to the instructions.
3. If the child has wet expectoration later.
When dry cough turns to wet cough, changing compound compound pholcodine oral solution into guaifenesin syrup or ambroxol oral liquid can promote expectoration and the recovery of airway mucosa function.
Aiming at children's runny nose
If you have a lot of runny nose, it is recommended to take Omron.
If the child has a stuffy nose when he sleeps at night, he can wash his nose with normal saline.
5. Children's anti-virus software
It is suggested to prepare Xiaoer Chiqiao Qingre Granule, Lianhua Qingwen Granule and Pudilan Oral Liquid.
Children can take drugs together when they have a fever (it is not recommended to use drugs with similar ingredients), and it is recommended to reduce it to one or stop taking drugs when they no longer have a fever.
6. Regulate intestinal flora
It is suggested that probiotics such as bifidobacteria and Bacillus subtilis should be prepared to reduce intestinal dysfunction and loss of appetite in the late stage of fever.
If the child's mental state is good, accompanied by mild symptoms, no obvious discomfort, and the child's temperature is not very high, it can be observed at home for the time being, but the child's state is very poor, drowsiness, severe loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms have developed into a serious trend. It is recommended to see a doctor immediately within 24 hours.
Reminder: For children under 1 year old, especially children within 3 months, if they have a fever, it is recommended to seek medical advice as soon as possible.
