thanks for choosing health care majic.It is not safe to give any medicine any time from any one which is not prescribed for you.Prolonged cough and cold needs evaluation from your doctor.Give her hot liquids to drink,avoid chocolates,packed snacks,cold drinks etc,which may trigger coughing.Give more citrus fruits which are rich in Vit-c helps in boosting the immunity.
