I'm really concerned about my 4-year-old daughter's cough. She's been having it repeatedly for the past 45 months. Sometimes it's dry and other times it's wet. It often happens in the middle of the night or early morning. We tried homeopathy, which helped a little for a while, but it didn't fix it permanently. Is there a chance for a permanent cure, or is it something not to worry too much about?

How much Flexon syrup should I give my child who weighs 12 kilograms? Should I calculate the dosage like we do for paracetamol at 15ml per kg? I'm a bit confused about how to get this right for my little one.

-For a child weighing 12 kg, the dose of Flexon syrup should generally be calculated based on the recommended dose per kg, similar to how you calculate paracetamol. However, the exact dosage of Flexon syrup varies, so it's best to follow the instructions

I've got both Jusdee 400 drops and Kidrich D3 drops at home. Should I be giving my child just one of these or can I use both? Which one would be the better choice? I'm a bit unsure about what to do.
