Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic.
Cough and cold are viral 95% of the times in children. For cold you can use anti-allergics like cetirizine and for nose block, saline nasal decongestants will do.
I am unable to tell you whether you can use any specific cough suppressant or not as you have not mentioned the age of your daughter. Some cough suppressants should be avoided till 2 years of age.
