Running Nose

[Caden's Mummy]

Realised my 4.5 month dear son is having running nose this evening. Is it safe to buy prescribed medicine from pharmarcist in the pharmacy?

No. Bring her to see a padi. They will prescribe something to dry up the mucus. But if the runny nose is not interfering with her breathing usually doc will tell you to let it clear up on its own. My baby had runny nose which caused her not able to sleep well, so that is what the doc told me. Hope this helps.

Thanks jellybnzy for yr advice. So far last night was ok, but can hear he's got difficulty in breathing. Shall monitor for another day as you mentioned doc also dont't advice medication for mild case.

your son is too young to take medication n all they can help ya is by giving ya nose drop to help your son's nose block. It will takes awhile before the running nose goes off. just bear with it as your son will b more cranky than usual during tis period coz i been thru tis too~

I brought him to see doc last night, he said no medication as he is too young, paid $31. lastt night have difficulty sleeping too. my mother in law is worried plus he is cranky and have difficulty breathing today so i brought him to see another doc today. he was prescribed with phlemg, cough and nose drop which cost another $40

He just had his medicine, hope he recovers soon.

for runny nose i always rub oil on his chest n back so can breathe better at night and it helps. it's some indonesian oil (not minyak telon) that my maid ask my relative to buy back for us.

i am quite surprise that the other doc actually prescribe meds for your 4mths old son~ By rite such young age shouldnt take any meds as their livers r not that mature yet which is really not good for them to take meds.

Iggy's pediatrician prescribe cough medi for him when he was 1mth old ... -_-"

I'll try to minimise the no. of days for medication. He seems to be better this morning. But can continue to give him nose drops until he fully recover right.

As parents, we're always worry about our kids well being, long term commitment...

Nose drop cannot continuous using it for 5 days ~ After 5 days you have to stop a few days before using it again~ Didnt your pediatrician told you about tis?
