Hello,
Tell me which antibiotics are you used till now? Better to take preventive measures rather than taking antibiotics.
Preventive measures like:
1. Boiling of milk giving bottles after feeding.
2. Giving boiled and cooled water for drinking.
3. Avoid pets near by so will avoid allergy.
4. Cleaning bed sheets and pillow covers regularly to avoid mites problem.
5. Giving sufficient amount of calories to build better immunity to the child.
Use Tablet Amoxicillin or Azithromycin according to the body weight under doctor advice.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
