I'm really worried about my 5-year-old. He's got these prominent bronchovascular markings, and his ESR is at 13. Is this serious? He's been coughing non-stop and always seems to have a fever. His recent blood test shows an absolute lymphocyte count of 5500 and a monocyte count of 9. We've been giving him normal flu medicines and using a nebulizer, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Could it be some kind of allergy?

Is it okay to give Sizodon syrup to my 3.5-year-old who has autism? The doctor recommended it for his hyperactivity, and he's been on it for the past six months. I'm worried and don't really want to continue with it. If I stop the syrup, will there be any side effects, or should I just keep going with it? I'm really looking for advice on this.
Stopping the medication abruptly can lead to withdrawal symptoms or a return of the symptoms for which the medication was prescribed (hyperactivity, agitation). It's essential to consult with your doctor before stopping Sizodon. A healthcare provider may suggest gradual tapering off the medication to avoid withdrawal effects and to reassess the management of your child's symptoms.
