Thanks for contacting ChatDoctorI am sorry to hear that your son has a bad upper respiratory infection. I see you already tried the fleet for his symptoms but his symptoms continue. I now recommend that you fill the antibiotic and continue with the fleet. You can also help with the cough and congestion by adding a cool mist vaporizer in his room at night. The cool mist may help unlock some congestion and help him breath easier. Hope this answers your question. Please contact us again for your medical questions and concerns
