You probably need to contact his doctor if the Rondec DM isn't relieving the cough, it contains Chlorpheniramine, Dextromethorphan and Phenylephrine - which are all OTC meds contained in OTC cough suppressants. He may need something prescription that's a different drug that's a little more potent. Good luck.
