How much Flexon syrup should I give my child who weighs 12 kilograms? Should I calculate the dosage like we do for paracetamol at 15ml per kg? I'm a bit confused about how to get this right for my little one.

-For a child weighing 12 kg, the dose of Flexon syrup should generally be calculated based on the recommended dose per kg, similar to how you calculate paracetamol. However, the exact dosage of Flexon syrup varies, so it's best to follow the instructions

I'm really concerned about my 10-month-old who has hand, foot, and mouth disease. Is it safe for me to continue breastfeeding him? And is it okay to give him a bath while he's sick with this disease?
Yes, it is safe to continue breastfeeding your 10-month-old baby even if they have hand, foot, and mouth disease. In fact, breast milk can provide important nutrients and antibodies to help your baby recover faster. Yes, it is okay to bathe a baby with hand, foot, and mouth disease. Keeping the baby clean can help prevent secondary infections. Just make sure to pat the skin dry gently after bathing to avoid irritating any blisters.

I'm really worried about my 10-month-old baby girl. She had a high fever and a febrile seizure, so we had an MRI, EEG, and ultrasound done, but thankfully all the reports came back normal. We're giving her Taxim O, 3 ml, as an antibiotic. I'm concerned about giving antibiotics frequently and if there are any side effects we should watch for. Also, I've noticed she's passing urine more often than usual. Is that something to be alarmed about, or could it be normal? If you have any other advice, Id really appreciate it.
