Hi,
This Novamox CV is aan antibiotic syrup which contains amoxycillin with clavulanate. CV is to avoid antibiotic resistance.
So it's better to give that. Also in brand name Augmentin.
You can also give amoxycillin alone which is good by itself and wait for few days. If cough is getting better,no need to change.
