How Much Sinarest Can Be Given To A Newborn For Cough And Cold?

Likely to be due to viral cause
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through the details and understand your concern. Most often such symptoms are due to viral infections and antibiotics are ineffective in such cases. Irrespective of treatment it usually spontaneously resolves in 5-7 days. Sinarest Drops is right to be given. You can give 0.6 ml thrice daily for the next few days.
You also need to give steam inhalation to your child. It helps in reducing the congestion. Just sit with your child on your lap and place the source of steam before you. The water vapor will be in the air and automatically the child will breathe it in. Water vapor will reach deep inside and would help in diluting the cough and thus would provide relief. Use Nasoclear Saline Nasal Drops in case of nose block.
Please be patient. It may take a few days for the recovery to occur. It should spontaneously resolve in 5-7 days.
Hopefully that would help. Feel free to write back in case of further queries.

Steam inhalation is the mainstay of treatment.

Possibly that too is from the same virus. You too would benefit from steam inhalation. Also take some antiallergic like cetirizine tablet once daily.
