she may need an antibiotic.
Cough syrup alone wouldn’t suffice.
i would also suggest changing the syrup to syp. bromhexiene.
But then again any prescription can’t be made without a consultation.
other than that , resort to conservative measures like using warm water for drinking.
Next Steps
Consult with a paediatrician/ gen physician
