Suggest Remedy For Chest Congestion And Repeated Cough In Children

Doc, My baby is having chest congestion and repeated cough. We are giving her Cefpodoxime Proxetil 5ml twice along with Servil Baby Syrup 5ml thrice from the day before. But she looks down from yesterday night. She has fever and coughing more. To control fever we have given Paracetamol syrup 5 ml once. The doc. in our locality prescribed Prednisolone Sodium Phosphate oral drop and changed the antibiotic to Amoxycillin and Potassium Clavulanate in the morning today . We are undecided. Please suggest. S Chatterjee Kolkata, India
