Cough medicine for 20 month old?

Question

My daughter has had a cough for the past week. She coughs a lot at night and it’s disrupting her sleep. I know cough medicine shouldn’t be given at her age. Is there anything natural or any medicine I don’t know about that I can give her? Thanks.

Answer

I use the mothers bliss honey and elderberry kind!

Answer

Almost any zarbee’s! They’re a lifesaver. I use the honey and elderberry one.

Answer

Peppermint oil mixed with lotion on her rib cage before bed, worked great for my daughter who has asthma

Answer

Any cough medicine for children under 4 years of age isn't FDA approved. Since your child is of age to consume honey I'd just give them a teaspoon as needed since that's all Zarbees is anyways.. honey is cheaper.

Answer

My new go-to for any cough/congestion is ALJ. It’s an herbal respiratory support and it loosens up and clears out mucus better than anything I’ve used on my boys before.

Answer

Dimetapp is what our dr told us to use. I don’t know your baby’s weight but my son weighs almost 30 lbs and he takes 5 ml
