Question: My Daughter 2.5 year old, crying a lot from last one week. Not taking food.
Last week she was coughing, so we gave her Kofarest 1 ml for 3 times for 6 days.

Should we get checkup done or give some alternate medication.

Brief Answer:
Better to get her examined

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
Based on the history you have given , I think it is better to get her ears nose and throat and chest examined by Pediatrician.
The cry could be due to ear or throat infection . This may need to be treated with antibiotics or antivirals after examination.
Meanwhile give plenty of liquids to keep her hydrated .Try paracetamol to relieve pain till you get her examined
