My 2.5-year-old child has had recurrent cold and cough for the past 2 months, with occasional fever. The doctor diagnosed a severe throat infection and prescribed Keflor 125 mg oral suspension, Montair-LC Kid tablet, and Asthalin nebulisation for 10 days. Is it safe to give Keflor for 10 days to a child of this age?
Yes, Keflor 125 mg oral suspension (Cefaclor) is generally considered safe for a 2.5-year-old child when prescribed by a doctor in the correct dose and for the recommended duration. A 10-day course is commonly given for moderate to severe throat infections, especially if the doctor suspects a bacterial infection. It is important to complete the full course, even if the child starts feeling better earlier, because stopping antibiotics too soon may allow the infection to return or become resistant. Montair-LC Kid tablet (Montelukast and Levocetirizine) helps reduce allergy-related symptoms such as sneezing, cough, and nasal irritation, while Asthalin (Salbutamol) nebulisation helps open the airways and ease cough or wheezing. These medicines are often used together in children with recurrent cough and breathing irritation. While giving Keflor, watch for side effects such as loose stools, mild stomach upset, vomiting, or skin rash. Also, ensure your child drinks enough fluids, gets proper rest, and avoids exposure to dust or smoke. Please seek urgent medical attention if your child develops breathing difficulty, poor feeding, persistent high fever, or unusual sleepiness.
