Hi doctor,
My two-month-old child has got a cold and cough. Maxtra Drop has been administered thrice a day for the last four days. But the cough still persists. Upon consulting our paediatrician, we have been advised to administer Ambrodil S syrup along with Sporidex syrup. Since Sporidex is an antibiotic, we are a little apprehensive of potential side effects and would like to have a second opinion.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Sporidex is a very safe antibiotic. Ensure that you use the correct dosage as prescribed by your paediatrician.
If you have any further queries, feel free to get back to me with the answers below.
Baby weight, activity, feeding, and if there is any fever.
Thank you.
