I'm wondering how much Zincovit syrup I should be giving to my 20-month-old toddler who weighs 9.2 kg. Is there a specific dosage I should follow? I'm a bit worried and just want to make sure I'm doing this right.

For a 20-month-old baby weighing 9.2 kg, the typical dosage of Zincovit syrup is 5 ml once a day, unless otherwise directed by the pediatrician. Always consult with your doctor before administering any medication to ensure it's the right dosage for your baby's needs.

View allMy daughter's been running a fever of around 100F every month for the past few months, and it usually sticks around for about 12 days. The doctor has been recommending Combiflame each time, but this time they suggested a CRP test, and the results showed a CRP level of 65. Now she's on antibiotics for 4 days, and they advised another CRP test afterward. How serious is this for her, or is this kind of thing common in kids? We're really worried and could use some clarity.
A CRP level of 65 indicates a moderate to high level of inflammation in the body. The antibiotics prescribed by the doctor are aimed at treating the possible bacterial infection. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed and follow up with the doctor for the repeat CRP test to monitor the response to treatment. Given the situation, it is essential to follow the doctor's advice closely, complete the course of antibiotics, and monitor your daughter's symptoms. If there are any concerning symptoms or if the fever persists, do not hesitate to contact your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I took petogen without realizing I shouldn't while breastfeeding. What should I do now? My baby is three months old and this was my first injection.
Consult a gynecologist to confirm the pregnancy and discuss options. Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) might be a viable option, but it's essential to follow local laws and regulations. Typically, MTP is allowed up to 12 weeks of gestation. Your wife's pregnancy is likely around 1-2 weeks, considering her period date was on the 23rd.

I'm wondering if it's okay to give levolin 1 mg syrup to my 8-month-old baby. He's been dealing with a dry khasi and sardi since yesterday, and I'm not sure if this medication is appropriate for his age. Is it safe to use levolin for such young infants, or should I be considering other options to relieve his symptoms? I'm worried and just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
