Suggest Remedy For Allergic Reactions
Hi My son is 5 years old, He has been having allergic reaction for 4 days now. He has been to the doctor twice and the Doctor prescribed Predcort DS and Aerius Syrup at first. He didn't show signs of improvement on Thursday so we took him back on Friday and the doctor doubled the dosage. Now he says he is cold and he's shaking so what should we do please help...!!!

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You may want to take him back to his doctor for re assessment.
He may actually have chills that are associated with a fever. You should check his temperature. If it is high then you should give him an antipyretic such as paracetamol.
Dress him coolly and also tepid sponge him as well.
I hope this helps
