I'm really concerned about my 6-year-old who's been dealing with an allergic cough for the past 4 years. Sometimes it gets really frequent, like every 20 to 30 days, and it seems to get worse at night, between midnight and 4 AM. There have been instances of vomiting, and our doctor mentioned something about bilateral wheeze and said it was moderate. They suggested we nebulize both in the morning and evening. Does this sound like a typical treatment plan for these symptoms? Are there any other options we should consider?

My child has been diagnosed with childhood asthma and it's really worrying me. He wheezes constantly and the treatment doesn't seem to be helping. It seems to get worse in the evenings, but the wheeze is always there no matter what. I use a nebuliser with Asthavent but it doesn't seem to ease the wheezing at all. The strange thing is, when he lies down, the wheezing disappears. He's even been hospitalized for respiratory distress before. What can I do or try next? I'm really concerned about his condition.

complete evaluation for the cause is required usualy that could be allergic identify the allergen and avoid it thats the main stay.

I'm trying to decide between Nan Pro and Lactogen for my 8-month-old baby. Can you help me understand the differences and which one might be better? I'm really curious about the benefits of each formula and if there's one that's more suited for my baby at this stage.

Nan Pro and Lactogen are both infant formulas, but they have some differences in their composition. Nan Pro is a specially formulated infant formula that contains probiotics and is designed to support healthy gut flora in infants. It also contains DHA, ARA, and essential vitamins and minerals for overall growth and development. For an 8-month-old baby, you can consider using Nan Pro 2, which is suitable for infants from 6 months onwards. On the other hand, Lactogen is also an infant formula that provides essential nutrients for infants. It does not contain probiotics like Nan Pro, but it is still a good option for infant nutrition. For an 8-month-old baby, you can use Lactogen 2, which is suitable for infants from 6 months onwards. Both Nan Pro and Lactogen are good options for infant nutrition, but the choice between the two may depend on your baby's specific needs and any recommendations from your pediatrician.

My little one has a stuffy nose and a bit of a cough. She's just 5 months old. I'm thinking of giving her mucolite and maxtra, both at the same time, but I'm not sure if that's okay. The dosage I've got is 0.6 ml. Is that alright for her age?

Yes you can give it no problem.
