Suggest Remedy For Cough In Sleep

Hello doc, My daughter has been coughing from last thursday mostly at nights in her sleep for say half an hour to forty five minutes on and off and when she stops she sleeps for the rest of the night. The cough is not dry it has a little cold but she is not having the flu, she is 18 months old..will ambroxol help? or what is causing it? she weighs 26 pounds.

Pediatrician 's  Response
nocturnal cough could be due to post nasal drip. check whether she has sinusitis, nasal congestion or adenoids ( snoring problems). simple nasal decongestants/ cetrizine at night time can help
