Hi,
I am sorry for the chest infection your 10 month baby is going through.
Claritek and clithor syr both contain the antibiotic chlarithromycin. It will fight upper respiratory tract infection caused by bacteria.
You should give one of them to your baby and not both.
The other meds should continue giving as prescribed by the second doctor.
If the first doctor prescribed bronchodilator, then, should not give britanyl syr as this contains terbutalin as bronchodilator.
Wish fast recovery.
