Brief Answer:
Advent Forte is antibiotic.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Advent Forte is antibiotic.
It is having combination of amoxicillin plus clavulinic acid.
It is good for respiratory tract infection.
Wet cough suggests lung infection.
So give him Advent Forte. No harm in it. It is broad spectrum antibiotic.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
