Not really they can have tylenol if they have a fever but you need to check with your doctor for dosage because it partly depends on what they weigh. My peditrician says no over the counter decongestant until age 6 months at the earliest. So a vaporizer will help clear up congestion even standing in the bathroom with a hot shower running will help. Just comfort him as best as possible, colds just take time.
Do not give him honey as teh second poster put. Babies are not supposed to have honey till one year old as it can cause botulism

gives him one teaspoon of PEUR HONEY in his feeder add 2onZ water and let him drink it use it up to 4 to 7 days he will be fine... no medicines...... only herbal or natural food can give him health life......
