Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Relent syrup is a combination of cetirizine and Ambroxol. It is safe and can be given to the child. Clamp is an antibiotic. Do follow medicine dosage as per your pediatricians advice. Clamp can cause stomach upsets in some children. Hence better to give probiotics also to prevent the side effects of antibiotics.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan
