Hi Gtkiran,
Thanks for writing your query.

It seems that your child is having low immunity. This will result in frequent infections.
Children are more prone to infections in this age group. As the age increases, the body immunity increases.

You should follow healthy life style and encourage your son for following healthy habbits :-
1. Doing regular exercise in fresh air.
2. Washing hands before and after eating.
3. Eating fesh fruits and vegetables.

Droxyl is an antibiotic and should be given along with a probiotic preparation. It should be given only when bacterial infection is suspected.

I hope if your child follows above precautions, his frequency of falling ill will be less.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
