A. Cough and Cold along with the symptom like Fever loss of appetite irritability could be a feature of viral infection or seasonal flu where most of the time supportive treatment is given. along with that cough expectorant and decongestant with antiallergic mevxdicine given.v steam inhalation can be given frequently to relieve the symptoms.

A. The medicine that you are giving is completely fine but this is basically an anti allergy so you are giving an anti allergy that’s not going to work for fever so in case of fever issue you have to go ahead with giving a proper medication that is specifically for fever like Calpol also I would recommend you strongly to check with your doctor one time
