[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid 10 yrs old starting coughing, with some sore throat on a Friday.  No other symptoms, except maybe a day with low fever.  Cough got bad, went to pediatrician the next Thursday.  Out of school the whole week.

Ped listened to lungs, heard a “crackle” and diagnosed walking pneumonia.  Started azithromycin.  We are now on Sunday, going to day 4 of antibiotics, and there is no improvement in the cough.  Nights are especially terrible, lots of continuous hacking with what sounds like a wet ocean of phlegm.

Main question is how long is typical to see cough improvement with antibiotics.  Thank you.[/quote]

we all got  sick mid-November, right before Thanksgiving. it's about a week now since all of us (2 adults, 2 kids 5 and 9, and a grandma) stopped coughing... it was insane.

this syrup did help ease the coughing, especially at night. there is also adult version.
