Dear Doctor, My 10.5 Months Old Has Been Given Prednisolone
Dear Doctor,
my 10.5 months old has been given Prednisolone 5 mg to ease breathing. the doctor prescribed 6 dissolving tablets at once but the pharmacist asked about the weight of my son as she thought it was quite strong shot at once. we havent givent it to him yet as we are worried, it might be life threatening. The doctor heard him last night so i assume he knows how much to prescribe? our baby was very wheezy and crackly and oxygen didnt help. thank you so much for the reply
