Ok. My four year old has an ear infection... she's on antibiotics for that. But she also has a dry hacking cough which starts up as soon as night comes. So far we've had four nights in a row with her coughing all night long. She's not sleeping, she's waking up her little brother and it's turning me into a bit of a zombie, too.

I've tried a couple of the cough medicines, but none of them seem to work (GP doesn't see the cough as a problem... just treating the ear infection). Can any of you tell me what cough medicine has worked for your little one? Particularly at night time?

Thanks in advance.
