what to feed infants with dysentery .my daughter who is bottle fed has dysentery she is about 4 months and 23days . pls advice

  Doctor's Answer

Hi, It has been seen in our practice that bottle feeding no, how hygienically you give it, can lead to infections in infants.And only breastfeeding is safe till infant is 6 months of age.So try to give more of breastfeeds to the infant if possible.If complete breastfeeds are not feasible then please give undiluted pasteurized cow's milk by cup and spoon to the child.Any solid feeds are not recommended till 6 months of age.And since dysentery is always infective don't forget to give an anti ...

my daughter has been prescribed Serta 25 for a panic attack she had recently while in a boarding school. She is in the final year for IB boards and maybe undergoing stress in preparation for the forthcoming exams. she is a little highly-strung and sensitive girl. With reference to the black-out she had she said that there was no external stimuli ie. pressure of the exams to have caused this attack. I as a mother am not not very sure. Her doctor prescribed Serta 25 one a day in the morning and Sibelium 5 one a day at night for 30 days. I am concerned about the side effects of these medicines. Are they safe to take under the given circumstances.
