Cough syrups are prescribed based on the kind of symptoms the child has: it can be allergic , spasmodic, productive. Best is to have a consult with a pediatrician and let them diagnose what needs to be done. Self medication can be harmful. Try to get a consult.

Sorry please don't give any medicine that is available with you. Each cough syrup is different just like each cough. Some are wet cough and some dry cough and some more serious.. Please consult a doctor directly

Get a physical consultation and let the doctor check the throat and auscultate the chest before deciding on need and content of cough syrup.
