Suggest Treatment For Cough And Chest Congestion In An Infant

Hello. My baby is 15 months+ and weighs 12kgs. He is right now suffering from cough which sounds really heavy as if with congestion. My doctor has asked me to give him Ambrodil-S half spoon thrice a day.But he s not taking it -may be the taste.But he likes honey, so can I give him Dabur Honitus instead,.If yes. then please let me know the dose. I also give him Koughnil , a homepathic syrup , but again he s not taking it right now.

Hi...You can give him Dabur Honitus....But Usually cough and cold are viral in origin. You say he's having chest congestion, by that, I understand that he might be having wheezing. If this is the case, Honitus may not be sufficient to treat the symptoms.
