Summary

Introduction

Most children have about 4–6 respiratory infections each year. This research was aimed at assessing the quality of life of children in the acute phase of the respiratory infection, who got natural syrup for the control of cough. Management of cough in children must be carried out in accordance with applicable pediatric guidelines, that are notably different from those used in adults [10,11]. Specific guidelines have been developed for the management of cough in children in America [12], the United Kingdom [13] and Australia and New Zealand [14]. Sometimes there may be more than one underlying cause, and an integral etiological approach to this disease in children is fundamental in order to assign appropriate treatment [15,16,17,18,19,20,21]
