Cough and cold is quite common benign and self limiting in young baby and does not warrant any medicine as they are commonly viral infection.
In fact cough and cold SYRUP does more harm than good. At most you can instill saline nasal drops in case of nasal blockage.
Unless cough and cold is associated with rapid respiration fever and respiratory distress you need not go to any doctor. Unfortunately many shall prescribe even antibiotics which is never necessary.

Yes , he has to be checked before giving the drug. Doctor should assess the lung condition and if the cough is associated with lower respiratory infection Ascoril alone will not help.

Yes trust your doctor. Its important to understand that it's not uncommon for kids to get infections like these but keep a track of oxygen saturation and continue fever monitoring.

Hi, Ascoril ls contains levosalbutamol which is to be given above the age of six years. However it may be given with caution in age group of 2 to 6 years. The recommended dose is 0.1 mg/kg.
