If baby is playful, alert, no fever or fast breathing. No loose stools or any other accompanying symptoms then these meds are not necessary. Nasoclear saline drops alone can be used to clear the nose.
Next Steps
If any warning signs are present them get him examined by a pediatrician and treatment accordingly
