Dear Patient,

Does she have any fever(how much?), runny nose or difficult breathing? Does she have reflux/acidity? Make sure this isnt secondary to reflux. Give her tablet zantac 150mg twice a day before meals for 1 week, if this helps then this is secondary to reflux.
Taking hot beverages in addition to cough syrup can help. Take tab softin once at night for a week also. Write back to us in a week.
