Question

My son had some beetroot rice this afternoon, and now his urine has turned a pinkish color 34 times. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal?

Don't worry, the pink color in your son's urine is likely due to the betalains, a pigment found in beetroot, which can temporarily change urine color; this condition is harmless and should resolve on its own within 24 hours as the pigment is excreted from the body.

Question

I'm wondering if it's okay to give levolin 1 mg syrup to my 8-month-old baby. He's been dealing with a dry khasi and sardi since yesterday, and I'm not sure if this medication is appropriate for his age. Is it safe to use levolin for such young infants, or should I be considering other options to relieve his symptoms? I'm worried and just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
