Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX Cough and cold are of various types and have to be treated accordingly. If it is a dry type then Allegra alone or with Monteleukast will help. If there is thick expectoration, try a cough syrup with Bromhexine and Guaphenesin. You can revert back if you have further queries. Regards
