I'm really worried about my 7-year-old son's asthma attacks. Can I use Duolin respules in a nebulizer for his asthma attacks? I know that albuterol or salbutamol is commonly used for asthma, but since Duolin doesn't have these active ingredients, is it still okay to use?

View allI'm really worried about my daughter Aradhya. She's been getting a fever two or three times every month for the last couple of months. We've seen different pediatricians each time, but they always end up prescribing antibiotics and antipyretics. The meds usually help for a bit, but then a month or two later, the fever's back. Recently, one suggested Septilin syrup, saying her immune system might be weak. Even after ten days on it, she got a fever again. Im feeling stuck and unsure of what to do next. Any advice?
get her complete blood count and chest xray and see if it is normal, then continue the syrup

I'm concerned about my three-year-old son. I gave him this medicine called Macpod 50, and I'm noticing that his lips are getting bigger. Can you help me understand why this might be happening?
As you have mentioned that your three-year-old child's lip portion is getting big after taking Macpod 50, this could be a sign of an allergic reaction to the medication. Macpod 50 is a brand name for Cefpodoxime, which is an antibiotic commonly used to treat bacterial infections. In some cases, allergic reactions to antibiotics can manifest as swelling of the lips or other parts of the body. I recommend stopping the medication immediately and contacting your child's healthcare provider. They may prescribe an antihistamine to help reduce the swelling and provide further guidance on how to manage the allergic reaction.
