I'm worried about my 4-year-old son because he's got a pretty bad cough and cold. Right now, I'm giving him Bactus B and Rapitus syrups. Is it safe and effective to keep using these for his treatment?

My daughter just turned 4 months old and she's been running a fever around 98.9 to 99.7 for 12 days now. I've been giving her Fepanil drops and Macpod since day one of the fever, but it hasnt gone away. Should I be worried?

I've got both Jusdee 400 drops and Kidrich D3 drops at home. Should I be giving my child just one of these or can I use both? Which one would be the better choice? I'm a bit unsure about what to do.
