Is there a safe sedation for an autistic child's blood test?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thanks for your query.

I understand your concerns.

Midazolam (Benzodiazepine) nasal spray will be helpful for the child if you are in hospital, a doctor who is well versed with Midazolam can give intramuscular injection. 3 to 5 mg will be needed.

You can also try Chlorpheniramine maleate containing cough syrup; 30 ml orally can be given. It takes some one hour time for the patient to sleep. Midazolam injection can be given by an anesthetist if available. It is better if he is fasting for at least six hours, even without water.

Kindly follow up for further assistance

Thank you.

1. Are you referring to the Levocloperastine (Chlorpheniramine maleate) cough syrup?
2. Are you in the hospital?

It needs a prescription. Please consult a doctor nearby.

Thank you.

It is better in the hospital settings. Please take help of anaesthetist. Zolpidem will not help. Proper sedation with Midazolam is possible.
