A. that's fine and can be given. it is important to follow the instructions opinion advice and medicines course given by your doctor for the problem . they are safe if given by registered medical practitioner. do not take medicines not prescribed by the doctor . take a follow up in few days if it is not improving for need of treatment modification or any lab / radiological investigations.

A. No it’s nothing like that you have to give within first 24 hours of what you can get it done within first week to 10 days after the birth of the child has no problem with that and normally BCG vaccination is actually given in the first week of birth only it’s not within the 24 hours of birth
