2 month old baby and medication

Went to general practitioner as baby is unwell, having flu and cough. Gp gave medication such as phenexpect and ventolin. After giving medication i was told by a friend not to give as their body cannot take it at this age and go to a paediatrician instead. Anybody have any experience? Baby really cannot take medication prescribed by gp or at this age?

Baby can take medications but we're not sure if those meds are appropriate for the baby. I think it is safer to consult a pedia for concerns with your baby.
