Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi The history which you have given and the medications your son is having
gives me an impression he is suffering with a heart condition whch is Supra
Ventricular Trachycardia and he is having Propananol for that. I also think
your son gets epeleptic fits and acid reflux for that reason he is having Kapra, Tiloptal and Zantac. He got reddish blochy skin rash as well. I think that could well be dueto side effect of Kapra. I think you should take your son to Paeditrician for investigations and treatment. Kindest regards Dr. S.K.Mukherjee
