My 17 month old has bad allergies. He take Zyrtec daily and acid reflux medicine. He is also on the antibiotic Cefzil and will be finished on Thursday. Today he woke up with this nagging dry cough and of course at night time it has gotten worse. I tried giving him a teaspoon of honey but what else can I do to soothe the cough?

@beebaby, thank you! This cough came out of nowhere and it's already getting to me plus I know he really won't get any good sleep with it. I will try the honey with the lemon tea.

@nursemama84, yes! Prescribed by his allergy specialist who has never stirred us wrong. My son has really bad allergies and reflux that his specialist has been treating since 6 months.

@beebaby, right now they only have him doing 2.5 mL once a day, it might need to be increased. I will be giving them a call. He doctor said he hasn't seen a case of allergies this bad in a baby so young and they don't recommend the allergy shots before 2 or 4,so he trying to hold off on that but he may have asthma down the line

@beebaby, I know you're glad! I'm hoping he grows out of it the older he gets because it's a pain in the ass! We live in Southwest Ga so we have like the worse pollen and allergy season ever!

@beebaby, I agree! It's always hot here, we never get a real winter
