Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. cough and cold medicine is given according to the requirement and examination so do not give any medicine without medical consultation.
if given without consultation coughing medicine can aggravate the problem.
you can go for home remedies like tulsi ginger (honey is added when child is more than 1 year of age) combinaation which can be diluted with water and given frequently to the child.
also you can give turmeric with milk one or two times everyday.
give warm water to drink as well as nasal saline drops frequently. give warm diet
try to prevent temperature variations around the child that is from hot to cold and cold to hot environment

sorry but we can not prescribe any medicine without examining your child.
instead of it ,I would suggest to apply Babyhug rapid relief rub on your child chest and back.
it is really effective.
keep your child well hydrated
give indirect steam.
