Hi Kathy,

Please provide with some more info:

1. Character of cough: deep/barking/choking...
2. Expectoration(if any): colour,consistancy (stringy/watery/ball like)etc
3. Feels better and worse by what? (warm room/open air/lying down/sitting up...)
4. Any other complaints along with cough? (gastric disturbances/ appetite increased or decreased/ any coating on tongue?)
Is there any amelioration after vomitting?

Please write about all his complaints in detail so that a remedy can be suggested

Thanks for ur quick reply magicure,
character of cough: deep and from mucus
expectoration:color is clear like water and very slipperyand stringy
feels better after vomiting the mucus(even food comes out).
I noticed that he coughs more in warm room or sometimes when he sits in the car may be because of heat.
when the cough is worse either sitting or lying down doesnt help.
I also noticed the cough is more during the late morning from 10 am to 1 pm or so and late evenings from 7 to 10 pm or so

complaints along with cough:his appetite decreased.he is eating less food and vomiting frequently.drinks less milk,eats less fruits and doesnt prefer sweets.his tongue is coated white.he is getting sick pretty easily This year he had an attack of flu, pnuemonia,stomach virus,and had 4 times regular cold.Otherwise he is a very happy and active kid.

He feels better and less cough after vomiting and again after 30 mins or so the cough starts coming back.
hope i provided u the required details.
thanks

start with ipecauc 30 c 4 doses daily

in severe condition repeat after 30 mins

and if not feeling better then give ipecauc 1M

take care

Since the child's tongue is white, should a couple of doses of ANTIM TART30c would not be more effective than Ipecac 30., combined with a few doses of Drosera 30c . after each dose two tablets of Kali mur 6X dissolved in a spoon of hot water will help the child
