Pediatrician,  's  Response
It is due to a viral infection. Such infections are associated with allergic reactions that cause runny nose. Fenistil contains Dimetindene which is an antiallergic and should be helpful. Adol contains hydrocodone-acetaminophen and should be given only if she has a fever present. Give her steam inhalation. Water in the form of vapour will reach deep into the lungs and help in diluting the cough and give her relief from cough.
