A member asked:
5 yr old coughing at night for 3 weeks. kids mucinex takes it away but don't want to keep giving it for so long. no other symptoms. no fevers.

Mgt: I would suggest an inbox consult and/or an appointment with your physician. The mucinex should be stopped and the cause of the cough determined. If there is nasal congestion, a saline rinse may help to reduce post nasal drip.
