cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators or antitussives medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the need.
if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose FH is 15 mg/ kg body weight and can be repeated after 6 hours again if required .
