Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi my baby is 7months old and she is having redness around the diaper area and also spots on all the body doctor has advice to give atarax syrups to give 1.5ml twice a day. Please help me how much should I give and is it safe for my daughter or not. Thank you.
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Atarax is antihistamine drug. It is safe in children. So no need to worry. You can give her Atarax. Dose is 1.5 ml twice daily after some food. So you can give Atarax after breast feeding. Apply baby powder on the rash area. Avoid moisture and perspiration. Use only cotton diapers. Don't worry, she will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
