Hello.It is necessary that your child be seen by a Pediatrician to rule that cough is caused by bronchitis, in that case it is necessary to use inhaled drugs and even corticosteroids by mouth.For now, syrups as Cloperastine can relieve your child's cough. Go to Pediatrician for examination and prescription. I wish you good health. (If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
