I'm really worried about my 10-month-old baby girl. She had a high fever and a febrile seizure, so we had an MRI, EEG, and ultrasound done, but thankfully all the reports came back normal. We're giving her Taxim O, 3 ml, as an antibiotic. I'm concerned about giving antibiotics frequently and if there are any side effects we should watch for. Also, I've noticed she's passing urine more often than usual. Is that something to be alarmed about, or could it be normal? If you have any other advice, Id really appreciate it.

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.

I'm really worried because my 5-month-old son accidentally got a small cut on his finger while I was trimming his nails. There were just a couple of drops of blood, and I immediately applied Dettol to the area. But now I'm concerned about the possibility of tetanus. Do you think there's a risk? Should I get him a shot just to be safe?
Since the wound was minor with only a few drops of blood and you applied Dettol, the risk of tetanus infection is low; however, as a precautionary measure, consult your pediatrician, who may recommend a tetanus toxoid injection if your child hasn't received the first three doses of the DTaP vaccine or if the wound is deep or dirty.
