Suggest Remedy For Burping,dry Cough And Vomiting

My daughter is 3 years old. She had undergone diaphragmatic hernia and adhesions surgery while she was 45 days and 9 months. Last week she had fever for 3 days and after that she burps 3-4 times while having food . Now she has dry cough while sleeping and vomit. Is because of paracetomol leads to acidity? Now am giving lanzol junior 1/2 tab twice a day and also koflet for cough. Is it ok?

Pediatrician 's  Response
The burping could be due to diaphragmatic irritation. Try giving liofen and see if there is relief.
The dry cough is probably due to a viral infection. Continue giving lanzol junior tablet or sachet to reduce the acidity. You will have to use paracetamol to reduce the temperature. The vomiting is unlikely to be due to hyperacidity but the possiblility of gastric irritation due to the medicines cannot be ruled out.
I would not suggest koflet. Give some antiallergic like levocetirizine instead. Give steam inhalation. Water in the form of vapour will reach deep into the lungs and help in diluting the cough.
