I'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?

I'm a bit concerned about this Zedex P syrup I got for my kid. It seems really thick and syrupyalmost too viscous. Could you give me a rundown on what it should look like physically?
Uncontrolled High Blood Pressure and Laboratory Results _Concerns and Recommendations_ 1. _Uncontrolled hypertension_: Despite taking Telmisartan 40mg, your blood pressure remains elevated (190110).

I'm worried about my 5-year-old daughter because she had severe vomiting and diarrhea about a week ago. The doctor suggested she take deworming tablets. I'm curious to know when it's absolutely necessary for kids to take these tablets. Do all children with an upset stomach need them? And are there any side effects I should be aware of?
you can take it
