A member asked:

7 month old son has a cough with a bit of runny nose but no fever. what can be used for treatment?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Time: At that age little if anything available over the counter has been shown useful for these symptoms. A focus on good fluid balance & nutrition is the main treatment.
