The doctor may prescribe getting kidney function tests and liver function tests periodically to keep a check on your child’s condition.

Question 6

Q. The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?

Accepted Answer

Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not mean that antibiotics are needed. During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken up and change from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.

Question 7

Q. My child is having a sore throat and ear infection. Can I give antibiotics?

Accepted Answer

No. More than 80% of sore throats and ear infections are caused by a virus and antibiotics are not given for viral infections. If your child has a sore throat, runny nose, a barky cough, pain, and discharge from the ear, it is most likely because of a virus. Consult your child’s doctor to seek guidance.

Question 8

Q. Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When to start an antibiotic to prevent infection?

Accepted Answer

In most cases, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics to treat viral infections may instead lead to side effects without benefiting your child's health. Use antibiotics only after consulting with your child’s doctor.

Question 9

Q. Can Pelpod Oral Drop impact my child’s digestive system?

Accepted Answer

Children often have a sensitive stomach and develop a stomach upset while taking antibiotics. When antibiotics are given, the good bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract may take a hit too. Pelpod Oral Drop may kill off the good bacteria along with the bad, increasing the risk of developing other infections. In case your child is having diarrhea while on Pelpod Oral Drop, do not stop the medicine course. Instead, call your child’s doctor to ask about the next steps. In some cases, the doctor may alter the dose.

Question 10

Q. Can Pelpod Oral Drop lead to bacterial resistance in my child?

Accepted Answer

Yes, irregular treatment, repeated use, and misuse of Pelpod Oral Drop can lead to resistance. Resistant bacteria are no longer killed by the antibiotics and may lead to reinfection.
