7.26 kg is a very reassuring and healthy weight for a 13-month-old born prematurely. His current crying, head shaking, and refusal to eat or drink could be signs of ear pain (common with respiratory infections) or stomach discomfort from his new medication, Azithral (azithromycin). Also, stopping Para V (paracetamol) may mean his pain is no longer being managed. Because he is refusing fluids, please have his pediatrician evaluate him promptly to prevent dehydration and make sure he is comfortable.

But it is incredibly important to finish the exact course of the antibiotic Azithral (azithromycin) as prescribed by your pediatrician. Stopping antibiotics early, even when symptoms improve, can cause the infection to return stronger. Typically, azithromycin is prescribed for a short course of 3 to 5 days. Since your baby switched from Extacef (cefixime), please consult your pediatrician to confirm the exact number of days they want him to complete. Never stop the medication early without their direct guidance.

Azithral 200 Liquid (Azithromycin) is an antibiotic and does not work against the common cold, which is usually caused by a virus. Unnecessary use may cause side effects and contribute to antibiotic resistance. Always consult a paediatrician to confirm whether your child?s symptoms are due to a bacterial infection before giving this medicine.

Please do not give your son Azithral 100 or 200 Liquid (Azithromycin) for a common cold or cough, as they are typically caused by viruses and antibiotics are ineffective against them. Giving it unnecessarily may cause side effects and antibiotic resistance. Always consult your paediatrician before giving any medication to your child.

You should have your wounds examined by a doctor as soon as possible, as severe pain may indicate an infection or underlying complications. Keep the wounds clean and covered, and avoid self-medicating with antibiotics or creams without medical guidance. Seek urgent care if you notice redness, swelling, pus, fever, or worsening pain.

No, Azithral 200 Liquid (Azithromycin) is an antibiotic and will not treat a common cold, which is usually caused by a virus. Taking it unnecessarily may increase the risk of side effects and antibiotic resistance. If your symptoms worsen or persist for more than 10 days, consult your doctor to rule out a bacterial infection or other underlying conditions.
