Suggest Treatment For Itchy Sneezy Nose In A Child
Sir, my daughter is of 18 months. She started having an allergic reaction which twice every monthly for 10days each episode develops itchy sneezy nose leading to excessive production and drooling of saliva and excretion which she will severely shock on and even vomit out. A doctor prescibed 6drops of oral betnesol and 1 drop of nasal drop per day. The episode calms down after 10 days and reappears after a break of 10 days. Could you kindly advise me of how to use these drugs and what are the dangers and advises you could give in treating an 18 month old.

Dear parent,
As per the history ,it seems like your child is suffering from allergic rhinitis.To prevent the episodes the drugs started were inhalations steroids.They are safe and benefits are more than the risk.As the childs age grows they may subside .These drugs should be increased and tapered based on the symptoms,hence regular follow up and calendar monitoring is necessary
