Should I give my son Azithral 100 or 200 for his cold and cough?

Asked by Female, 30 · 2 months ago

Azithral should not be given just for a simple cold or cough, as these are usually viral and don't need antibiotics. Give it only if a doctor prescribes it, and the strength (100 or 200) depends on your child's weight and the exact dose advised by the doctor.
