I'm really worried about my little one. He had pneumonia when he was just 9 months old, and since then he keeps getting sick every few weeks, like every 23 weeks or so. Now he's got a fever and cold, and he's coughing with wheezing again. Is there a pattern here, or something we should be doing differently? This keeps happening, and I feel like I'm missing something important. Would love your advice on what steps to take next.

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.

I'm trying to figure out which medicine we should use for nebulization for my 7-year-old who's dealing with a cold and cough. We've been trying steam, but it doesn't seem to be doing much. Any advice on what might be more effective?

Do you know what might be causing this? Will it gradually get better on its own, or is there something I should be doing about it?
