A. Cough along with Cold and fever most of the time is a viral illness or allergic and it needs supportive care along with proper hydration needs to be maintained. you can give steam inhalation which may be useful . cough needs to be treated with medicine like anti allergic expectorant bronchodilators antitussives or cough suppresents medicine which should be given only after a proper evaluation by the doctor according to the type of cough and need. In severe cough nebulisation can be given where medicine directly gets dilivered in the respiratory tract. Also if fever is there paracetamol can be given to reduce the fever and the dose is 15 mg/ kg bogdy weight and can bhe repeated after 6 hours again if required . Home remedies like Tulsi & ginger mix in honey can be tried for soothing.

A. Then you should consult your doctor regarding this because we do not advise you to go ahead with giving any medication without consulting the doctor the doctor has to suggesting a proper medication after examining the child and that is the right way to go ahead with that
