Is Allopathic Medicine Intake Safe For A Kid?
my child is 3 years old and is having cough from last 4 months. Doctor advised me to get some tests done. They found E.S.R level raised upto 40 in reports. So he told me to give my baby montecope syrup for 6 months daily. (5ml daily) Is it safe to give an allopathic medicine to a kid for so long? After this, will other medicines work on him?
