HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
If the cough is a wet cough then she would need a mucolytic to help break up the mucus in her chest so that she can expel it easier.
Your local pharmacist and doctor would be able to tell you what is available and safe for her to use.
She should also drink enough fluids, this would reduce the mucus thickness.
I hope this helps
