Response: Sick babies should always be evaluated in person. I would recommend taking baby back to the doctor if he seems worse.

Probably medication: Salbutamol and theophylline are both asthma medications, and often help with cough, but irritability is a common side effect. It could mean that the child is getting too much for his weight. A nebulizer might be better. Don't give any more medicine untgil you discuss it with your doctor.

Chest image: The lack of response to medications concerning. Please see acute care today. Cool air mist, nasal saline and keep upright bat a 30 degree angle. Flu, CoVID and pertussis screening recommended.
