Treating coughs and colds in children

It’s normal for children to get 8 or more colds in a year, however gradually they build up immunity and get fewer colds. Most colds will get better within a few days and you may not need to do more than keep your child comfortable until they get over it. Antibiotics will not help to treat a cold as they are caused by viruses and not bacteria.

Follow these simple steps, which may help your child overcome their cough or cold:

1. If your child is hot or has a fever. Increase the amount of fluid your child normally drinks. Lower their temperature with a Paracetamol or Ibuprofen medicine, which is suitable for children. (Paracetamol is not suitable for children under 2 months. Ibuprofen is not suitable for children under 3 months).

Your pharmacist will be able to help you find a suitable product if in doubt.

[2. For coughs: Although it may be distressing to bear your child cough, the coughing itself serves an 'important purpose. It helps to clear phlegm on the ichest or mucus from the nose. Give your child plenty of lukewarm clear fluids to drink, which may [help loosen the phlegm and relax the airways.

£. To help with breathing: Plain saline nose drops, available from your pharmacy, can help babies with blocked noses who are having trouble feeding.

Treating coughs and colds in children

It’s normal for children to get 8 or more colds in a year, however gradually they build up immunity and get fewer colds. Most colds will get better within a few days and you may not need to do more than keep your child comfortable until they get over it. Antibiotics will not help to treat a cold as they are caused by viruses and not bacteria.

Follow these simple steps, which may help your child overcome their cough or cold:

1. If your child is hot or has a fever. Increase the amount of fluid your child normally drinks. Lower their temperature with a Paracetamol or Ibuprofen medicine, which is suitable for children. (Paracetamol is not suitable for children under 2 months. Ibuprofen is not suitable for children under 3 months).

Your pharmacist will be able to help you find a suitable product if in doubt.

[2. For coughs: Although it may be distressing to bear your child cough, the coughing itself serves an 'important purpose. It helps to clear phlegm on the ichest or mucus from the nose. Give your child plenty of lukewarm clear fluids to drink, which may [help loosen the phlegm and relax the airways.

£. To help with breathing: Plain saline nose drops, available from your pharmacy, can help babies with [blocked noses who are having trouble feeding.
