Patience: A cough is a natural protective mechanism designed to bring up mucus/debris from deep in the lung so it can be removed. None of the over the counter meds or supplements have been found effective or needed in these kids.At most they just give you something to do so you feel better (not the kid). I find a 1/2 tsp of honey with lemon juice or chocolate are as good as anything to provide some benefit
