Age Consideration: Candibiotic ear drops contain neomycin, which is generally not recommended for infants without medical advice due to potential side effects.
-
Consult a Pediatrician: Always seek guidance from your child's doctor before using any ear drops, especially combination medications, to ensure safety and correct diagnosis.
-
Possible Allergies or Sensitivities: Be aware that some infants may be sensitive to components like neomycin, which can cause irritation or allergic reactions.
-
Proper Diagnosis: Ear infections in infants require proper evaluation to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
Summary: Do not use Candibiotic ear drops on your baby without explicit guidance from a healthcare professional. Your pediatrician can recommend the safest and most effective treatment for your baby's ear condition.

View allI'm a bit worried about my 3-month-old baby. I've been feeding them both formula milk, specifically Lactogen, and breast milk since they were 2 months old. Everything seemed fine, but lately, I've noticed they've started having greenish stools for about a week now. I'm thinking about switching from Lactogen to Nan Pro. Is it safe to make this change? And why might their stools be green?
Marijuana does not directly affect HIV test results. HIV tests detect antibodies or antigens related to the virus, not substances like marijuana. However, if you're concerned about your HIV test result or CBC variations, consider the following: 1. _Window period_: HIV tests may not detect the virus if taken too early after exposure. The window period varies depending on the test type. 2. _Test sensitivity_: No test is 100% accurate. False negatives can occur. 3. _CBC variations_: Changes in your CBC results might be unrelated to HIV or marijuana use. To alleviate your concerns: 1. _Retest_: Consider retesting for HIV after the recommended window period. 2. _Consult a healthcare professional_: Discuss your test results, marijuana use, and any concerns with a doctor or counselor.

I'm wondering how much it usually costs for nebulization at a hospital for my baby. We need to do it twice a day for a whole week, and I'm not sure what to expect price-wise. Can you give me an idea?
Nebulization typically costs between 200 to 500 per session in hospitals, depending on the facility and location. If your baby requires it twice a day for a week, you might be looking at a total of 2800 to 7000 for the week, though prices can vary. I would suggest confirming with your hospital for more precise rates.
