Is It Safe To Give Combiflam Suspension With Glucon-D To A Child?
Hello Doctor.
My Daughter is 2.5 Yrs old & weight 9 KGs. She got fever yesterday afternoon. I gave Crocin Syrup 5ml twice at intervals of 5 hours. The fever went after 45-50 Minutes of dosage.
But now third time it came back, so I have now Combiflam Suspension 5 ml. However, I mixed it with 1 small spoon of Glucon-D (orange flavor) & 1/4th of cup of Water, because she would not take any syrup otherwise.
I chose Glucon-D, also because she did not have her dinner last night, so she was empty stomach and I thought Glucon D will give her some energy too.
Plz tell, if giving Combiflam Suspension Syrup with Glucon-D is OK?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Cause of fever is to be diagnosed. It can be viral fever or urinary tract infection, and urine test can rule it out.
Anyway mantain her hydration. Do not give any antibiotic. In place of glucon-D give electral and green coconut water. Regulate her temperature with crocin syrup 6 hourly and cold water sponging if requiered. Give her vitamin C and B-complex daily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
