I'm really worried because my 18-month-old son needs his IPV and Hib vaccines, but our doctor says they're not available. It's been over two weeks since he was supposed to get them. What should I do? Is there a way to find where the vaccines might be available, or should I be concerned about the delay?

A creatinine level of 2.3 is considered high and may not be safe for angiography. High creatinine levels can indicate kidney damage or disease, which may be exacerbated by the contrast dye used in angiography .
To reduce high creatinine levels, consider the following:
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your kidneys function properly.
- Follow a low-protein diet: Excessive protein can put strain on your kidneys.
- Limit salt and sugar intake: Both can exacerbate kidney damage.
- Exercise regularly: Regular physical activity can help improve kidney function.
- Manage underlying conditions: If you have diabetes, high blood pressure, or other conditions that can affect kidney function, work with your doctor to manage them effectively.
Given your continuously rising creatinine levels, it's essential to consult with your doctor to determine the best course of action. They may recommend alternative tests or procedures that don't involve contrast dye.

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

My little one is just 6 months old and has been dealing with a cough and some chest congestion. I'm wondering if it's safe to give him Ambrodil S syrup? I'm really concerned about making sure I'm doing the right thing for him, and I'd love some guidance.

I'm worried about my 11-month-old baby who weighs 9kg and has vomited twice. How much Calpol suspension should I give her? Is there any specific dosage I need to follow?
For an 11-month-old baby weighing 9kg, the recommended dosage of Calpol Suspension (containing paracetamol) is: - 2.5-5 mL (60-120 mg) every 4-6 hours, as needed. However, since your baby has vomited twice, consider the following: - Consult your pediatrician before administering Calpol Suspension. - Start with a small dose (2.5 mL or 60 mg) to check for tolerance. - Monitor your baby's temperature and vomiting. - If vomiting persists or worsens, seek medical attention.
