Looking for a natural cough suppressant...?!


Question:

Looking for a natural cough suppressant...?

My daughter has a nasty cough. At this point in time, it's early in the cycle of the cold, and there is no fever. Taking her to a doctor this early is only going to result in a cough medicine recomendation; or more likely being told that cough medicine really does nothing anyway (pediatrician has said this many times).They'll tell me to give her lots of liquids, lots of rest, and she should be fine soon. If the cough persists or gets worse, bring her back.
So that being said, she's got the medicine already, which isn't working very well. Is there a food with the natural benefit of being a cough supressant?
I just want to help her feel a bit better if I can.
Thank you for all your answers!
