General & Family Physician,  's  Response
i would like to know more about your ailments.what cough syrup have you been taking? is the cough productive or dry?
you can take syrup ascoril LS 10 ml TID for 5days and see if it improves, your headache could be due to sinusitis,try steam inhalation atleast 3-4 times a day.
i am a little concerned,since you have been having cough since 3 weeks i would suggest you to get properly exmained by your physician, who would suggest you to get a chest xray done.
I find this answer helpful
