Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Ascoril does not cause sedation but this is not for treatment of cold.
Kolq syrup helps in relieving cold.
Steam inhalation and local instillation of saline nasal drops help relieving congestion and nose block.
Avoid cool drinks and ice creams and cold atmosphere.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
