Newborn circumcision
My doctor suggested to give 2.5 ml of phenergon syrup before my 1 month old sons circumcision procedure. Is it safe? Because I read in google that it shouldn't be given in children below 2 years. Please advise

You should give thanks to your doctor, he has not used anesthetic medicine. To do procedure baby need sedation, all medicines available are more dangerous than phenergan.
