Recommendations
1. For children aged ≤ 4-years with chronic cough (>4 weeks duration) without an underlying lung disease, we recommend that treatment(s) for GERD should NOT be used when there are no clinical features of gastroesophageal reflux such as recurrent regurgitation, dystonic neck posturing in infants, or heartburn/epigastric pain in older children.
