Brief Answer:
Please give Ascoril D Junior.... rather than Pulmoclear

Detailed Answer:
Hello...I understand your concern.
Pulmoclear has Acebrophylline .. which is not licensed at this age.
You can give her Syrup Ascoril D Junior 3.5ml thrice a day for 3 days.
If there's wheeze you may give Syrup Levolin.

But all these are prescription medications and you will require a doctor's prescription for this please.
