Brief Answer:
Can be given.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Symptoms like runny nose occur due to allergic cause which is often associated with catching cold. T-minic is not a preventive medicine but would help if given for the next few days. You may also benefit from giving steam inhalation.
