my Dr said if you want to give anything, go with the tylenol products (Tylenol plus) since the dosage would be the same as regular tylenol.

My kids have been getting Tylenol plus for cough and runny nose along with a humidifier at night

Just a warning - benadryl can cause hyperactivity in some children
