A member asked:
Is it safe for me to give my 21 month old betanoid syrup for an upper respiratory infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I wouldn't: Unless this kid has seen a doc and had this recommended as part of treatment I would NEVER give it to a kid this age with a URI. Oral steroids suppress the immune system, particularly in a toddler and should only be used when necessary.
