Suggest Treatment For Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia In A Child
My son will complete 11 months in Nov. He s a cdh baby( congenital diaphragmatic hernia). He s having fever from 2 days n fever is not coming down. He s present weight is 7kg. Can I give him 125mg adol suppository or I need to cut it half? I have started 3.5ml of cefix today.
The adol suppository for fever control would be 62.5 mg at first instance and repeat the after 2 hours if T is above 100. The congenital diaphragmatic hernia needs surgical correction.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
