HI Rajani,
welcome to HCM,
2 Year old child having high grade fever with vomiting ,loose motion and occasional cough it suggest child having a gastro enteritis with URTI(Tonsilitis ,pharangitis or bronchitis..).
crossin drop in 2 year aged child is less effective than crossin syrup,but only crossin is not sufficient to treat the above condition at home you must consult a doctor in this condition.
I m advice you to put a cold water sponge over whole body and give syrup crossin 5 ml at the time of fever and plenty of liquid orally like lemon juice,tea coffie ,butter milk,coconut water etc to prevent dehydrtion from diarrhoea as a home remedies

hello,
welcome to hcm
thanks for the query
first of all give crocin syrup 5ml 3 to 4 times per day after food
maintain adequate hydration by giving him oral rehydrating solution.in home you can give him coconut water ,lemon juice,butter milk etc
if the loose motion not subsiding then he may need some antibiotic syrup for 3 to 4 days
also he may be suffering from upper respiratory infection.
if he is severely dehydrated then contact your nearest hospital
take care
