I'm really worried about my 5-year-old son. He's been dealing with a chronic cough for the last 3 weeks and usually, it gets better after a couple of weeks with nebulization. Weve been using Duolin for nebulization since he has mild asthma and also using Budecort and Salbair puffs. But this time, there's no major improvement, and his X-ray came back normal. I'm wondering why this could be happening and what else we might be able to do?

I'm currently down with a fever of 102 degrees and seeing as I'm breastfeeding, I'm a bit anxious about the medications I'm on. I've been prescribed Dolo 650 every 8 hours along with Sinarest in the morning and night, plus Cepodem XP also in the morning and night. Is it safe to take Dolo 650 and Sinarest together while breastfeeding?

Yes you can take it...there is no contraindication of paracetamol during breast feeding

I'm really struggling with my son when it comes to studying. Every time I ask him to focus on his studies, he starts crying and becomes extremely impatient. It seems like he's not at all interested, and he lacks the patience to learn anything new. Because of this, he isn't able to do things properly and often won't even attempt them. How can I help him become more interested and patient with learning?
