Possibilities of phytotherapy in the treatment of acute respiratory infections in children

Abstract

Тhe article discusses the issue of the features of the course and treatment of ARI in children at the present stage. It is emphasized that the irrational use of antibiotic therapy leads to increasing antibiotic resistance, to the development of side effects. In order to improve the effectiveness of therapy, the use of traditional medicine, in particular phytotherapy, is proposed. Phytotherapy is a scientifically based treatment with medicinal plants or their parts used in native fresh or dried form, as well as in the form of galenic preparations. This treatment is especially advisable in sensitive patients, in patients with comorbid and polymorbid conditions, in the presence of resistance to the drugs shown to the patient, to prevent the development of side effects, at the stage of rehabilitation, as well as for the prevention of various diseases. In order to treat ARI and its complications, the use of the phytotherapeutic drug Umkalor in treatment protocols is justified.
