My 4 yr old has a night cough for 4 days. no fever and med isnt working. is it whooping cough over counter med not helping and only at night?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wait and see: Whooping cough is not just a night time cough. If meds were given for cough, use as directed. If antibiotics, and it is viral, it will not help. Keep well hydrated, and if a fever develops or other problems occur, call your md.
