My tot has been coughing since Fri. We have seen the doc and were prescribed a cough syrup. But it doesn't seem to help. What can I do?

Hi, I let my toddler drinks a teaspoon of honey, rub vicks on her chest and soles (with socks on) when she sleeps. I also will switch on my diffuser and put essential oil like peppermint to let her have a good night rest. It works for both my children and I dont rely on medicine as it doesn't cure the roots of the pblm. When she gets well, you can build up her immune system by introducing vits. There are many good brands in the market. Do do research and see which ones suit your child best. Hope your lo gets well soon.
