Cipladine is not recommended for itching due to an insect bite unless the skin is broken or infected. For a swollen itchy insect bite, use a cold compress and an age-appropriate antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) if needed.
If the swelling is large, a mild steroid cream prescribed by your doctor is more effective.
Please consult your pediatrician urgently if the redness spreads, pus develops, fever occurs, or your child has difficulty breathing.
