Whether to take anti-inflammatory drugs for coughing depends mainly on the symptoms and nature of the cough in question. If there is an obvious cough, coughing sputum and fever, this is when anti-inflammatory drugs need to be given for treatment, especially if coughing yellow sputum indicates a bacterial infection and anti-inflammatory drugs are definitely needed. Of course, sometimes with dry cough, it is also possible to take anti-inflammatory drugs. If the cough is found to be mycoplasma infection and the mycoplasma antibody is 1:320 or 1:160, positive, because mycoplasma cough is predominantly dry, then it is also necessary to take anti-inflammatory drugs, mainly macrolides, such as azithromycin and erythromycin, which can treat the cough very well.
