Suggest Remedy For Severe Cough From Croup In Infants

Hi, my 7 month old baby has had a bout of croup lately and now she coughs so hard she s choking - she sometimes swallows what comes up but other times phlegm/sputum is projectiled and other times she projectile vomits instead. I ve got a vaporizer in her room due to the croup - what would be the best thing to do? She cries in pain lately from laying on back and maybe it s reflux causing everything. You thoughts?
