For a 1.5-month-old baby, the PCV (Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine) and RV (Rotavirus Vaccine) are indeed recommended vaccinations. - PCV Vaccine Schedule: Typically administered in two primary doses at 6 weeks and 14 weeks, followed by a booster dose at 9-12 months of age. - RV Vaccine Schedule: Usually given in three doses at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, and 14 weeks. It's essential to consult your pediatrician for personalized advice and to ensure your baby receives the necessary vaccinations on time.

I'm wondering if it's safe to use the old cough syrup and pain relief syrup for my toddler that we opened and used a bit of about 6 months ago. Should I be worried about its effectiveness or safety now?

I've been dealing with bleeding piles and I'm currently breastfeeding my baby. Is it safe for me to use lactulose solution? Could it have any effects on my baby?

Lactulose solution is generally considered safe during breastfeeding, as it is not absorbed into the bloodstream and therefore unlikely to pass into breastmilk

I'm really worried about my son; he's been dealing with a cold, cough, wheezing, and a runny nose for the past 11 days. He wasn't eating anything and seemed to be thirsty all the time, which isn't normal for him. We went to see a pediatrician who rec...

For your son's persistent running nose, consider adding saline nasal drops or spray to help loosen mucus, and consult the pediatrician about continuing Tminic and possibly adding an antihistamine or decongestant; regarding the recurring wheezing, discuss with the pediatrician the possibility of underlying conditions like asthma, allergies, or respiratory issues, and explore preventive measures, such as avoiding triggers, using a humidifier, and keeping your home clean and dust-free, to reduce the likelihood of wheezing episodes.
