Cetrizine 10 mg is over dose for her... Do not give that... You can give grillinctus BM pediatrics syrup 3 ml three times a day for cough.. But she has cough only since a day, so you don't have to give her too many syrups... You can just give her syrup maxtra 2.5 ml three times day for 2 days and wait it out, if she doesn't get better, start grillinctus.
Avoid curd and things right out of the fridge... Avoid orange also for a few days... You can give apple, carrot, beet root.also better to give fruit than fruit juice. Also keep giving her warm water to drink
