Ascoril syrup Cough Medication

Hi My 4 yr old toddler has had a fever , cough and cold for the last 2 days and his pediatrician confirmed its upper respiratory tract infection with normal throat and chest clear . He has prescribed to use Ascoril plus syrup for cough along with Xyzal for cold and calpol 250 for fever. Though I see Ascoril plus prescribed (Terbutaline1.25 Mg + Menthol 0.5 Mg + Bromhexine 2.0 Mg + Guaiphenesin / Guaifenesin 50.0 Mg) is usually for adults and at some places mentioned as not to be used for small kids. Is that the case? If so , can I use Ascoril LS junior instead? Also can it be used with Xyzal syrup?
