Question 1

My baby is 64 days old and sleeps through the night from 11 pm to 6 am without waking for feeds. His last feed is around 10:30 pm. During the day, he feeds on demand and stays active with good urine output, though he poops every alternate day. We're doing mixed feeding mostly pumped milk with formula only when needed. He had a lip and tongue tie release surgery 10 days ago and takes about 7-9 feeds per day. Should I wake him at night to feed or is it okay to let him sleep since he's gaining well and active during the day

Accepted Answer

let him sleep

Question 2

My 10-year-old daughter had a fever, which thankfully went away after she took cefprozil, Alex PBifilac, and Pritexylls junior. However, she's still dealing with a really annoying dry cough, especially at night, which is making it hard for her to sleep well. We started giving her Kasnajiva and SeptilinhIMALAYA yesterday, but the cough hasn't improved much. Do you have any suggestions on what we should do next or if there's something else we could try? I'm really worried about her lack of sleep.

Accepted Answer

Continue same treatment for 5 days is advised to the patient.

Question 3

Is it okay to give Sizodon syrup to my 3.5-year-old who has autism? The doctor recommended it for his hyperactivity, and he's been on it for the past six months. I'm worried and don't really want to continue with it. If I stop the syrup, will there be any side effects, or should I just keep going with it? I'm really looking for advice on this.

Accepted Answer

Stopping the medication abruptly can lead to withdrawal symptoms or a return of the symptoms for which the medication was prescribed (hyperactivity, agitation).
It's essential to consult with your doctor before stopping Sizodon. A healthcare provider may suggest gradual tapering off the medication to avoid withdrawal effects and to reassess the management of your child's symptoms.

I'm really worried about my little boy; he's just 2 years and 5 months old and has been having this cold, cough, and wheezing. I feel helpless and not sure how to make him feel better. What would be the best way to get him proper treatment?

give syrup citrizen 3 ml twice a day. syrup ascoril 2.5 ml for 5 days
