Question

If a newborn has red spots and vomiting, can cold medicine be given?

Answer

Before administering cold medicine to a newborn, it is important to first determine the type of cold. Currently available medications include Huitong, Xiao Kuaike, Haowawa, etc. During the treatment period, it is essential to provide the baby with plenty of fluids and maintain a light diet. When traveling with the baby, if you are breastfeeding, you can directly feed breast milk and pay attention to maintaining the temperature of the food. If the baby is over two months old, when traveling outside, you should pay attention to keeping warm and maintaining a proper diet.
