Suggest Treatment For Influenza Virus
My 21 month grandson was put onto betanoid syrup due to having an influenza virus. My question is he has difficulty getting to sleep, very hyperactive and quite agressive, kindly advise me can these reactions be to the medication and should he be taken off the meds immediately. Thank u pam sheppard. YYYY@YYYY

Sir i m really surprised rather shocked to know that why that particular doctor has prescribed such a strong drug as betanoid ( it contains steroid CORTISONE ) for a 21 month old baby !!!!! Plz STOP IT IMMEDIETLY....if he has still having problem of running nose n cold due to influenzs you can safely use SYRUP LINCTAGON ( its a natural antibiotic with no side effects ) and u can use SALINE NASAL DROPS for running nose in a small baby as ur grandson....give my love to ur grandson n dont worry , he shall recover very soon....regards...dr rahul rathee
