not sure about honey as most people told me not to give before 1 yrs old, what I do is we give
1. boil apple with garlic and onion and mash them, I give him every morning when he had phlegm and stop after 1 week
2. buy those tonic soup the reduce phlegm and stop cough one, my son like the ZTP one.. so we boil that with pear and he can drink the soup and eat the pear as snack..
