Can my 12 yrs child take becadexamin. is there any side effect or if there then how much dose will be preffered

Becadexamin, a combination of betamethasone, dexamethasone, and chlorpheniramine, is generally not recommended for children under 18 years due to potential side effects like growth suppression, adrenal insufficiency, and behavioral changes; however, if prescribed by a doctor, the recommended dose for a 12-year-old child would depend on the specific condition being treated and the child's weight and medical history, so consult a pediatrician
