have you consulted your pediatrician before giving the Medicine?
because you can not give antibiotics without consulting your pediatrician.
anyways ,now , please keep your child well hydrated.
give indirect steam to your child.
or apply Babyhug rapid relief rub on chest and back of your child.

keep your child head slightly elevated while feeding and sleeping.
