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) combination which can bbe diluted with water and given frequently to the child.
