Pharmacy law does not allow online veterinarians to advise clients regarding the use of human medications in pets. You may call your normal veterinarian who may be able to advise you. I do recommend to have Coco examined by the veterinarian today. A bad cough can be a sign of many things, some of which are serious like fluid in the lungs, heart failure or severe collapsing trachea. These issues need to be addressed quickly and with medication that only the doctor can provide. I hope Coco starts feeling better quickly.
