A member asked:
My 2 year old daughter had a mild ear infection and was prescribed amoxicillin. she completed it and is still coughing . should she see the dr again?

The antibiotic : Was for the ear infection not the cough unless she had a bacterial infection for the cough then antibiotic would play a role. Cough may just be allergy or cold related. If condition worsened, she needs to see pediatrician again
