Hi,
Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.
The medicines prescribed for your kid are okay and continue as per the prescription.
Give sips of oral rehydration fluids like Pedialyte to maintain hydration of the child.
During illness, the appetite and oral intake will decrease, but it increase as the child recovers from the illness.
Try to give soft diet.
Be in follow up with the doctor.
Hope I have answered your query.
Regards.

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic
his prescription is alright
children usually are fussy in eating especially so when they are ill
you should take more time and patiently wait on him till he takes
offer the foods the baby likes to take, not what you feel better for him
as the baby is only 8 months old, if you are breast feeding continue breast feeding at least till he is better
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Take care

hello dear,
thanks for your query at health care magic,
your child suffering from infection and your giving him medication that would have reduced his appetite.
once child is out of the infection his appetite will improve.
medication your child taking are good. no change is required.
once he recovers from infection give him zincovit syrup 5 ml once daily.
regards.
