Hello,
Pedicloryl syrup should not be used regularly for sedating baby under normal cicumstances .
Should be used only if baby undergo some tests or treatments where child has to be sedated.
If the child has pain during the procedure it can be used but very carefully.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
