When a patient complains of a runny nose and cough, you test for bacterial infections. If no bacterial infection is found, assume that it is a viral infection; treat the symptoms and wait for the viral infection to run its course.

It maybe that simply dosing with a cough medicine will affect, harmfully, any prescribed medicine the doctor has previously prescribed.
