Hello,
Yes, you can give syrup Kidpred as advised. Along with that, you can give syrup Amox clav, syrup Sinarest as per weight after consultation. Keep him warm and well hydrated. If not getting relief then do complete haemogram and chest x-ray after consultation. Kindly follow with detailed history or consult with a pediatrician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
