One of my close friends...had the same issue with her daughter...she took her daughter in and my friend isn't a

big fan of medications, and her doctor knows that, so anyways her doctor said you

can take diet coke pour it in a glassand use a spoon and stir it until it is flat,

then have her daughter drink a little bit. My friend did this and it worked for her daughter.

 This. Make sure you run it for a good couple min before you even go in there. It's  like a steam bath. She's probably coughing because she has post nasal drip douwn the back of her throat. Kids mucinex works good too, if she's old enough.
