Frequent cough

2017-02-21 17:09:49
My 5 years old son has been suffering from cough and cold for the last one month. He was administered antibiotic (Cefoprox DT) along with Ambrodil syrup and Montair LC kid syrup but no remarkable improvement noticed. He is still showing the same problem, especially during sleeping at night when the intensity increases suddenly. Kindly advise me what course of action to be taken for his early recovery.
