Does Azethrol Help In Relieving Both Fever And Cough In A 3 Year Old?

My son had 3 high fever today morning.. it went upto 103. He also has wet cough and so pukes out whatever he is eating. I gave him 150 ML of ORS and 7.5ml crocin. His fever is down and he is active. But should I give him azethrol 250 mg syrup? Will it help in both fever and cough? Does that have sidefects?
