Is it normal for my 4-month-old son to keep urinating every 20 minutes with a decreased overall amount of urine, even after being treated with Taxim O, Zifi, and Amoxyclav, and while taking daily Sporidex drops to prevent infection before his upcoming kidney scan (DMSA), especially since his bladder scan (MCUG) was normal but his latest urine test still shows a trace of protein (albumin) and a few infection-fighting cells (pus cells)?

It is quite common for babies to experience frequent, small urinations after a urinary tract infection, as the bladder lining can remain sensitive and irritated even after treatments like Taxim O, Zifi, or Amoxyclav. The trace of protein and few pus cells, while taking daily Sporidex (cephalexin), likely point to mild residual inflammation rather than an active, severe infection, especially since his MCUG scan was normal. The upcoming DMSA scan will give clear answers about his kidney health. Please keep him comfortably hydrated and share these symptoms with his pediatrician to see if a repeat urine culture is needed.

Is it safe to give Metrogyl syrup and Taxim antibiotic to an 18-month-old baby who has diarrhea?

Please do not give Metrogyl (metronidazole) or Taxim (cefixime) to your baby without a pediatrician's direct prescription. Diarrhea in toddlers is often caused by viruses, meaning these strong antibiotics may not be necessary and could even upset her stomach further. The most important step right now is to prevent dehydration by offering frequent sips of Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) solution and water. Please have a doctor examine her to determine the exact cause of her diarrhea and prescribe the correct, safe dosage if needed.

Should I continue giving my 2-year-old son (weighing 12.8 kg) his newly prescribed Ibugesic and Taxim O for his sore throat and fever even though he is still in pain, or is it safe to switch him to Augmentin which worked well for him in the past, and what are the correct doses of these medications for his weight?

Please do not switch from Taxim O (cefixime) to Augmentin (amoxicillin-clavulanate) without consulting his pediatrician. Antibiotics take 24 to 48 hours to start working, and swapping them can be unsafe. You can continue giving Ibugesic (ibuprofen) as prescribed to help manage his pain and fever. Because pediatric liquid medications come in various concentrations, the safest dose must be calculated based on the specific bottle strength you have. Please contact his pediatrician to verify the exact dosages for his 12.8 kg weight.
