Detailed Answer:
Welcome to health care magic, I share your concern and I will try to help you out in best possible way.
Cough with temperature indicates that there is infection in lower respiratory tract, if its not coming down from past one month, there is a need to take antibiotic.However you can ask her to take
syrup. Zeet expectorant along with tab. MUCOLITE twice daily for 5 days. If cough doesn't subside, them you have to take her to hospital and get her examined and get a sputum smear test done.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
