Running nose and cough in 8 month old
My 8 month old weighs 5.6kg(iugr birth weight 1.02 - 34 weeks 3 days).
He has a running nose and cough.
T Minic (0.4ml)and ambrodil s(2ml thrice) syrup were suggested .
Are these safe for the baby?
Also, he is already on 1ml zincovit and 0.8ml tonoferon. Can I give these along with ambrodil s and t Minic?
