* For details on evaluation for the cause of chronic cough and specific cough pointers, refer to UpToDate content and algorithm for evaluation of chronic cough in children.
¶ A child with a dry cough and no specific cough pointers can be safely watched without treatment (the watch-and-wait approach). The child should be followed and reevaluated in 2 to 4 weeks if the chronic cough does not resolve or if new symptoms emerge. Alternatively, a time-limited trial of asthma medications or acid-suppressing medications may be done; refer to UpToDate content for patient selection and precautions.آیا می خواهید مدیلیب را به صفحه اصلی خود اضافه کنید؟
