I'm concerned, thoughare these meds safe to use every single day? And how long are we supposed to keep this up?

Question

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?

Question

My child threw up four times after having lunch. I think the food might've been a bit too spicy. I gave him 2.5 ml of Emset. He's sleeping now, but should I wake him up to give him some fluids?
