Continuous coughing

My son who is 15 months old has developed a cough. We are giving him Sinarest AF syrup 0.5 ml, when the cough is severe. Should we continue this medication or something else? At what point should we consider taking him to the doctor. He does not have cold. And he is not having temperature either.
