Pediatrician,  's  Response
Your child is probably suffering from a viral infection which is often associated with enlarged tonsils which is responsible for his snoring and sleeping difficulty. The attempts of cough out may trigger the gag reflex which may trigger vomiting instead. Nebulisation is supposed to help in liquefying the cough and should help in resolving the situation eventually.

Give him some antiallergic syrup like Relent which will also act as a mucolytic and help in liquefying the cough. It will also help in reducing the runny nose. You may give Ondem syrup thrice daily half an hour before food if he has vomiting. Continue the nebulisation. Gurgling with lukewarm water should be helpful for the tonsils.
