A. I apologize for the confusion earlier! For your baby with a cough, it's important to know that giving syrup or medication to an infant should always be done under a doctor’s supervision. Cough syrup for babies varies based on their age, and self-medication may not be safe. For babies under 6 months, it's generally not recommended to give over-the-counter cough syrup without consulting a pediatrician. Coughs in infants are often caused by viral infections and tend to resolve on their own. However, a doctor may recommend saline drops or a humidifier to help ease congestion. For babies 6 months and older, if the cough persists or is more severe, your doctor may suggest specific medications like: Honey and lemon (for babies above 1 year) Saline nasal drops (to clear congestion) Cough syrups containing honey or herbal ingredients, depending on the baby’s age and the severity of the cough Make sure to consult with your pediatrician before giving any medication. They can recommend the safest and most effective treatment for your baby's condition.
