Do Maxtra Oral Drops cause loose stools? How long should I wait between feeds?

Maxtra Oral Drops (Chlorpheniramine maleate and Phenylephrine) may sometimes cause loose stools as a side effect, but this is usually temporary. It is advisable to wait about 15 to 30 minutes after a feed before giving the drops to reduce stomach upset, or to follow the specific dosage and timing intervals prescribed by your paediatrician.

My son has a severe runny nose and Maxtra drops did not provide complete relief, what other medicine should I give him?

Please do not start any new medication or increase the dosage of Maxtra drops without consulting your pediatrician. Maxtra contains an antihistamine and a decongestant, and combining it with other cold medicines can lead to a dangerous overdose. Since the runny nose is severe and Maxtra isn't providing relief, your son needs a physical evaluation to rule out bacterial infections or allergies. For immediate, safe relief, you can use saline nasal drops (like Nasoclear) to loosen mucus and gently clear his nose with a bulb syringe. Keep him well-hydrated and consult his pediatrician for a safe, alternative prescription.

My 7-month-old baby has been suffering from a fever since yesterday. I gave azithromycin syrup, Corflam suspension, and Maxtra oral drops as prescribed. The baby seemed better initially, but the fever has returned this morning. What should I do next?

Since the fever has returned in your 7-month-old baby, it is important to have your baby re-examined by your doctor or paediatrician to identify the underlying cause and determine whether the treatment needs adjustment. Do not give additional medicines or antibiotics without medical advice. Ensure the baby stays well hydrated, continue taking paracetamol if advised, and monitor for warning signs, such as poor feeding, lethargy, or breathing difficulty. Seek urgent care if the fever persists or worsens.

What is the dosage of Maxtra oral drops, for my 6-month-old son with cough and cold?

I have a cold and cough. I've been using Maxtra drops and Honetus syrup for 3 days.
