Mom of a 6 m old boy4 weeks ago

Q.

Hi, my 5 month old is diagnosed with impetigo on his scalp. I was prescribed antibiotics 3ml two times per day for 5 days. But I mistook it for 0.3ml, and gave just 0.3ml every time. Can I start a new course with 3ml now?

A. Mam actually generally also 3ML is very high for this year so it would be better that you crosscheck with your doctor and if they suggest that you should give it to the child again the entire course of antibiotics then only you should give we don’t recommend you to give it without doctors consent
