Yes you can use otrivin S or any other Normal Saline Nasal Drops for colds and associated nasal blocks to your 7 month old baby.

Hi leela,
Otrivin s can be used for children but dont use the adult formulation as it contains higher concentation of oxymetazoline which is high dose for your child, consult pediatrician for further details.
Take care
