Hi.... I understand your concern. But all the drugs in children are given according to the body weight calculation, so please get back to me with the current weight of the baby, so that I can be sure that the appropriate dose is being administered.

Regarding the safety of eptoin, it is well established. So if you are giving the appropriate dose for the weight of the baby, you need not worry, but please be under follow up with your doctor.

Regards - Dr. Sumanth
