No need to take all those tablets. Nimesulide has been banned in India. But don't worry. No side effects with single dose. You will be cured.

Don't use any other drug than paracetamol only.
Common colds are caused by viruses. So antibiotics has no use in it. And antibiotic misuse has become a social problem.
Take paracetamol (500 mg), drink plenty of fluids (ors water), steam inhalation and take rest. If symptoms doesn't subside within 3 days or you have further questions please consult privately.

You can. The point is why would you want to give medicine for cold. Cold is a viral infection which will go away on it’s own. Allow your child’s immunity to fight it. It will improve her resistance to such common infections. Use medication only if she is in genuine discomfort or developed a fever.

You maybe suffering from viral or allergic rhinitis and pharyngitis. You need to avoid the cause of your allergies and also take anti allergy medications. Please consult for prescription. If you have an infection and have fever you will need to do a course of antibiotics. For now do warm saline gargle and steam inhalation 3 times a day. Please consult in private for prescription.
