Depends on cause: Runny nose and cough that are part of a cold or viral infection will resolve on their own after 7-10 days. If the symptoms are part of allergies, they should respond to antihistamines such as zyrtec, allegra, claritin, (loratadine) etc. Another cause is sinus infection and that would resolve with antibiotics. Unfortunately there is not just one easy treatment as there are many causes.
