no cold medicine works instantly.
It has to get into the blood stream to make any difference so that means it has to be digested first.
Takes at least 1/2 hour for any medication to start working unless you are using one of those inhalers like for asthma.
Have her drink lots of water, rest, keep a humidifier going in her room to keep air moist, a honey and lemon hot tea is good for coughing. An ibuporfen for her age will take down a fever.
She should be in bed and resting and drinking water all the time.



childrens cold/ cough ibuprofen workds well I still use it for my colds and im a teenager (just in bigger amounts) gets rid of fever, stuffy nose, and is a cough supressant. it works in about a haalf hour
