Detailed Answer:
Hii. Your daughter is having enlarged adenoid. Adenoid is generally enlarged in child and it decreases with age. But as your child is having continuous cold and cough then you should consult an ent surgeon and get a nasal endoscopy done. See what is the grading of adenoid enlargment. You can do a x ray soft tissue neck also to see the grading of adenoid enlargment. If it is grade II and more then you should start mometasone nasal spray for long period. The infection from adenoid is the source for allergic cough. She can take steam inhalation after spray. Sometimes adenoid affect hearing.If she is having hearing loss, ear pain also then do a hearing test and impedance audiogram. If she is having snoring, mouth breathing, difficulty in taking food, choking spells at night, abnormal dentition and difficulty in speech then she need surgery and removal of adenoids. But surgery is only indicated if she is having above symptoms. Augmentin is okk for her. No need for other antibiotics. She can take antiallergic tablet levocetrizine for short period. Follow the above guidelines and review with reports or you have any doubt.

Detailed Answer:
Hii. Augmentin is perfect. You start mometasone nasal spray and solspre saline nasal spray. This will decrease the allergy. Start betadine gargle also and warm saline gargle. Take steam inhalation. You can give augmentin tablet or augmentin syrup around 40 mg /kg. If the symptoms are severe then child can take 80/kg twice daily. Do a x ray soft tissue lateral view and nasal endoscopy.
