Wet cough with cold
Hi,
My little one is 9 M old and recently he had fever for 3 days which is now gone and post that he is suffering from wet cough and cold(running nose).
When he had fever his cough was dry, by seeing that doc prescribed him levolin syrup.
I just want to know in case of wet cough can we continue with levolin syrup? Or should go with syrup which can be used for wet cough, please suggest
Thank you

If mild,avoid unnecessary medicine and just give steam inhalations for cold and cough and decongestant nasal drops for nasal block or increased cough on lying down.
If not improving OR accompanied by other symptoms like wheezing or breathlessness or dullness and refusal to feed,consult your paediatrician.
