Augmentine is higher antibiotics.it is useful in pneumonia treatment also. If you suspect pneumonia than you can confirm it by X ray chest. If child has relapse of cold you should consult doctor again. You can consult me through Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment for cold and cough and pneumonia in children without side effects.
