Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hello dear!
i would recommend some good anti histamines like levocetrizine 2.5 ml at night for a week and ivy leaves extract containing syp. twice daily for 5 days.
You can also try some home remedies for cough like few drops of freshly crushed and squeezed ginger in a tablespoon of honey with a pinch of black pepper powder,mix well and give him 2-3 drops when coughing. It will soothe the cough You can also simply give a teaspoon of honey in a glass of luke warm water to drink once daily.
Hope it will help.
Wishing your child good health :-)
