A. any cough most of the time either it could be allergic or infective which needs proper evaluation. initially you can start by giving steam inhalation to your baby which will help in relieving symptoms to some extent and will make the baby comfortable.for small baby should be given indirectly from a distance.cough suppressants are usually avoided in childre beenn,it needs to be examined first before giving any kind of medicine. so it will be better if you consult your doctor for proper guidance along with proper dosage for the kind of problem.

A. hi dear For babies 12 months or older, you might try giving them a small amount of honey before bedtime or naps. The honey will coat your little one's throat to relieve soreness. One study revealed that honey may be as effective as the OTC cough suppressant dextromethorphan. have to give steam and then better to consult doctors immediately
