Hi As you are feeding your baby, for cough you can try home remedies like turmeric in milk, ginger ,cinnamon, tulsi tea, drink warm water. Homeopathy is quite efficacious in acute and chronic cough ,it will have no side effects ,neither on your child nor on you. I recommend you to avoid cough syrup.
