How Can Chronic Cough Be Treated?

Hi my husband gave my daughter Montekulast 4mg and calpol at 6.30pm as she’s been under the weather with a cough and had a couple of days of a temperature. She’s now still up and cannot stop coughing. What’s worked before is piriton - can I give this even though she’s had the other two medicines two hours ago? Her bed is raised up and she has vapour rub on her feet. Nothing is helping. I’ve given piriton and montekulast before to my daughter as directed by doctor but not with calpol. Thanking you in advance for your advice. Kind regards Chantal
