A member asked:
What we can do for under 6 month child if she got cold? i gave her panadol (acetaminophen) only which is for fever, does it work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Acetaminophen: Panadol which is a brand name for acetaminophen works for fever. Do not give it for the cold symptoms, only works for fever. For cold symptoms all you can do is elevate the bed, bulb suction and saline drops
