I'm in Bangalore and I'm having trouble finding Otostar drops, which I've been using to clean my 7-month-old baby's ears. One of the stores here suggested I use Otorex instead. Is it safe to use Otorex for my baby's ears? I'm a bit worried and would really appreciate your advice.

View allMy 2-year-old daughter has had hydronephrosis in her right kidney since birth, and recent tests show only 44% function. The doctor recommended surgery, but I want to explore other treatment options first are there any medicines or alternatives? If surgery is the only option, what's better traditional or laser? Also, what would be the approximate cost?
Hydronephrosis with reduced kidney function (44%) in a 2-year-old typically indicates obstruction that may not improve with medications alone. Surgery is often the definitive treatment, and delaying it could risk further damage. Laser (minimally invasive) surgery is preferred for quicker recovery and less pain. Costs vary by hospital but may range from ₹50,000–₹1.5 lakh in India.

I'm a bit worried about my child who was advised to use Duolin and Flohale for severe asthma. He's currently having an attack, and I'm wondering if I can mix Duolin 0.5 mg and Flohale 0.5 mg respules and give them together. Can you let me know if that's okay?
no they shouldn't be mixed together as they both serve same purpose
