Hello Lybrate-User,
You could use piriton cs if it's only dry cough that is with out any sputum. You can give 5 ml syrup 2 times a day. If there is sputum then you can give chericof ls. Alex syrup contains antibiotics so you have to give it only under doctors advise. You can consult me privately so that I can know more about your daughters symptoms like if there is sputum/ balgam, if there is redness in the throat, sneezing and cold, fever etc.
