A. for syp maxtra it will be 3.5ml twice daily give nasal saline drops every few hourly to the child in the nasal cavity. try to prevent temperature variations around the child you can go for indirect steam inhalation which will again help in decreasing both cough and cold continue the regular diet of the child if there is no improvement in few days then meet your doctor for fever and pain give paracetamol. anti-cold medicines at this age have got side effects so can be given only after medical consultation.

A. It is going to be 10 drops three times in the day and apart from that you can also also nebulise the child with regular saline water if you want that’s also also going to be a very good option for the child
