Hello and thanks for the query.
Unfortunately we are not able to provide prescriptions for patients through this service.
if your child continues to have symptoms of this illness I would suggest trying to have him seen by the local medical provider as soon as possible. I realize hospitals and clinics are busy but this is still the best option for safe and optimal care of your child.
Thank you again for your query.
Sincerely,
Dr Galamaga
