Syp. Kufril LS is not a medicine for simple cold and cough as it has some extra ingredients. It is used when child is having cough along with chest congestion that too after ruling out signs of pneumonia. So do not use it on your own.
You can use over the counter syrups like Sinarest AF or Tixylix.
My advice would be to consult a paediatrician for right diagnosis and proper medicine.

Expectorants help thin mucus, making it easier to cough up. The ingredient guaifenesin is the only expectorant in the U.S., so look for it on the label if you need an expectorant. Suppressants help cut the number of times you cough. The active ingredient listed is usually dextromethorphan (DM).

Most often it's viral infection. Fever usually settles down in 3 to 4 days. Cough takes 7 to 10 days. Continue same treatment. Small children get frequent infections because of low immunity.
