4 year old son has post nasal drip with a slight throat infection and flu symptoms - what otc medicine can i get for him?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mgt.: For post nasal drip, nasal saline and gentle suction is effective. He may need Tamiflu, and if he has a fever, I would recommend a visit with his PCP. Keep him well hydrated, rested and check his temperature.
