I'm really concerned about my little one who's almost 1 and a half years old. He's still breastfeeding, but my wife isn't doing well health-wise. She's struggling with depression and is really weak, so she can't keep breastfeeding. We've tried giving our kid food and fruits, but he still cries a lot for his mother's milk and doesn't like drinking regular milk. Could you please give us advice on how to wean him off breastfeeding?

View allI'm feeling a bit worried about giving Ambrolite-D to my 5 and a half-year-old son. He has a cold and cough. The thing is, I noticed it's also used for adults and says something about being for dry cough. Is it really safe for him? Just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
Ambrolite-D is a combination of an antihistamine and a decongestant, commonly used for treating cold and cough in adults. While it may be prescribed for infants in specific doses, it's important to follow your doctor's recommendation regarding the exact dosage for your 5.5-month-old son. Please avoid self-medication and consult your pediatrician if you have concerns about its safety for your child.
