Most coughs and colds in children are caused by viruses, so antibiotics like Augmentin are usually not needed unless a bacterial infection is confirmed. Alex P syrup may help relieve symptoms such as cough, nasal congestion, and fever. Make sure your child drinks plenty of fluids and gets enough rest. Consult your doctor or paediatrician if symptoms worsen, last more than a week, or if your child has a high fever or trouble breathing.

For a child with a fever, it is usually safe to give paracetamol or another standard fever-reducing medicine. Omnacortil and Predone are steroid medications and should not be given without a doctor?s prescription, as they may cause serious side effects. Alex P syrup is for coughs and colds and does not reliably reduce fever. You may give your daughter plain paracetamol syrup, keep her well hydrated, and monitor her temperature. If her fever persists or worsens, please see a doctor immediately.
