What Diet Should Be Given To A Toddler Recovering From Bronchiolitis?

Hi, my son who is 1 yr 1 mnt 18 days old has been diagnosed with bronchilits and is on medication namely Ambrolite Levo 2.5 mg 3 times for 7 days and Zincocet same dosage for 4 days. He has shown some improvement he is active but still not eating anything and hardly drinks water. I m nursing him and he is on external milk is this enough till he recovers completely ??He sleeps a lot is it due to the medicine ?? Should I start antibiotics or is there anything I should do???

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
If the child is active and there is no fever then antibiotics are not required. probably it is a viral infection, may take 1-2 weeks to settle. Yes the medications do cause some amount of drowsiness. Try to give lot of liquids in any form should be helpfull
Don't worry, he will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. Thanks.
