Any home remedies for a bad cough/cold?

My 15 month has a bad cough and you know doctor's ain't prescribe anything cough medicine for infants that young. All she have him was saline drops -_- yea I thought it was stupid too. So I'm asking you lovely mommies, anything you do/done for your little ones that helped!? I just hate hearing him cough like a 40yr old man.

I've done all the Vicks tricks, I like the steam idea but only during the day I don't want him coughing through the night. And the onion is interesting, lol I'll attempt to get him to drink it,warm? Thank you ladies, always appreciate your help (:
