Abstract:
:Chronic cough is a symptom of various respiratory and non-respiratory conditions with negative impact on quality of life of children and their families. The pediatricians should focus their efforts in search for etiological diagnosis. A careful medical history and physical examination are the mainstays of diagnosis and guidance to further studies that may contribute to detection of final causes. The etiological identification of chronic cough must be followed by specific treatment. The symptomatic approach with antitussives and mucolytic drugs is exceptionally necessary and should be considered for some situations of nonspecific cough without any specific disease association.
