For Infection you require antibiotics and some cough syrup to relieve symptom of cough. Triclofos . is for mental irritability. i do not give such drugs Antibiotics are enough for 4-5 days. Cough syrup is also sedating. use indian herbs concoction of crushed piece of ginger, cloves3-4, jaggary boil in water for10minutes water .lt will reduce. let it cool, feed yourson.
