If she has been suffering since the last 6 months, she will require an in depth evaluation. Firstly the cause for the incessant coughing needs to be ascertained. You haven't mentioned her X-ray or blood reports. If inhaler therapy isn't working, switch to nebulisation
Next Steps
Consult a pediatric pulmonologist if it seems to be affecting her growth
