A. Hello dear parent..
Tonoferon is for iron and many times it doesn’t suit the child and which causes the mentioned symptoms specially constipation... so consult the doc n ask for different medicine
And what age is the child ?? If it’s above 6 months then include green vegetables specially methi and Palak, ragi, jaggery, dates, in the diet as they are iron rich

A. Hello dear parent, tonoferon drops are usually for iron , folic acid etc. And iron brings constipation in the babies, for the first few days post which everything gets normal.
Do no worry much.
but you still feel this uncomfortable, then consult your paediatric again for any substitute for this syrup
