My son's got some chest congestion going on, and I'm trying to figure out how much ambrolite syrup I should be giving him. He weighs about 15 kg. Can you help me out with the right dosage?

View allMy little one is 15 months old and she seems to catch colds really easily. At first, the doctor suggested using a steamer for hot steam, but I'm worried about her getting burned. Then, another doctor recommended using a nebulizer with saline water, which gives cold steam. I'm a bit confused. Which method would give her better relief, or do they both work the same way?
Both steam inhalation and nebulization with saline can help manage cold symptoms, Nebulization is typically safer

I'm really worried about my 24-day-old baby girl who cries a lot at night. We initially thought it was gas since that's pretty common with newborns, so we've been giving her Crosin drops as suggested by our paediatrician. I'm wondering if it's safe to keep giving her 4 drops daily? Are there any other medicines you would recommend? She seems to be doing well otherwise - she sleeps and eats well, with no fever or unusual symptoms. We feed her every 2.5 hours and her bowel movements are normal. Any advice on why she might be crying so much?
Avoid givig crocin and ask your doctor to give digestive enzymes like Colic aid or neopetine,that would help you

I'm wondering if it's okay to give my 5-year-old son Maxtra syrup. How much should I give him, and are there any side effects I should be aware of? Also, is Sinarest syrup a better option? I'm really curious about which one is safer and more effective for my child.
-Yes, you can give **Maxtra syrup** to your 5-year-old for cold symptoms, but the dosage depends on weight, usually 2.5-5ml twice daily. It might cause mild drowsiness or an upset stomach. **Sinarest syrup** is also effective, but consult your pediatricia
