Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your child has cough and cold since 4 days which seems to be due to upper respirtory tract infection. Need not to worry. Maxta drops and Kofarest is effective for cold and cold and should be given in mild doses. I would suggest you to visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should go for throat swab test as well and start treatment after proper diagnosis. Get X-ray chest done. You should put mist humidifiers in room.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
