Antibiotics for chronic wet cough in toddlers
Treatments studied
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether the antibiotic Augmentin helps children aged 9 months to 3 years with long-lasting wet cough (more than 4 weeks). It aims to find better ways to treat and understand this common problem in toddlers.
