If the cough is distressing and not being relieved with oral medicines you require to give him nebulisation with levolin 4 times daily. A short course of Syr Omnacortil 4ml twice daily will also help. But if he is repeatedly acquiring these cough you need to put him on regular medications like Montair LC 4mg daily for 3 months.
