Greetings of the day

I would suggest you giving him Syrup Ibugesic plus( Paracetamol + Ibuprofen) as per the body weight.
If the cough is worsening and fever persisting would suggest you to visit your Pediatrician for further assessment of cause of Fever.

I hope it helped
Do get back to me if you have any other query


Take Care
Wishing you and your family a happy and healthy life
