How should I safely give the prescribed medications?T98 DS and Meftal for high fever, Montek LC Kid and a syrup containing Ambroxol hydrochloride, terbutaline sulphate, and guaifenesin for cold and cough, and the antibiotic Swich CV 100?to a child who has had a high fever, cold, and cough, and has not eaten anything for three days?
Since your little girl hasn't eaten for three days, it is crucial to protect her stomach. Never give Meftal or the antibiotic Swich CV 100 on a completely empty stomach, as they can cause irritation. Try giving small, frequent sips of ORS, milk, clear soup, or coconut water first. Once she has a little fluid in her, you can safely give her prescribed doses of T98 DS, Meftal, Swich CV, Montek LC Kid, and the cough syrup as directed by your pediatrician. If she remains extremely weak, cannot keep fluids down, or shows signs of dehydration, please visit your doctor immediately.
