Cold and cough issue
Hi, I have a 3-month-old newborn who has been experiencing cold and cough since this morning. I’ve been using Nascoclear six times a day. Does this help with relief? Can anyone suggest other drops that might help?

Cough is likely due to viral infection which lasts for 2 to 3 weeks. If the child is active, there is nothing to worry about. Home remedies are safe and good for relief. There are not many safe medicines at this age. Please visit a pediatrician for prescription

Since the complaints are from morning you can wait another one day to resolve and continue nasoclear drops every 3 to 4 days
Next Steps
watch for signs of increased breathing and feeding difficulty . if present consult nearest pediatrician
