My child has been coughing for more than a week and has not been getting better. He has been coughing badly at night, and the doctor prescribed cough medicine and montelukast sodium tablets (adult medicine).I saw that Baidu said it takes a long time to take this, but I forgot to take it yesterday, is it okay?
