Hello, son 10 years, diagnosis at the pediatrician pharyngitis. He was assigned Cetix once a day and Apo Napro 2 times a day. My question, can I give it to a child of 10 years old?

If these medicines have been ordered by a doctor, they can be given to a 10-year-old child during an upper respiratory tract infection. Cetix is an antibiotic that can be used in children over 6 months of age. Apo-Napro is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that will relieve inflammation of the throat, lower fever and relieve sore throat, headache during illness - it is best taken after meals. In the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis in children, it is used from 5 years of age, in other cases from 16 years of age, so in case of doubt you can ask your doctor about this drug, e.g. during teleadvice. Until clarification, over-the-counter analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory products with ibuprofen, e.g. Nurofen: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/55134/nurofen-dla-dzieci-junior-o-smaku-truskawkowym-zawiesina/apteki During treatment with the above drugs, it is worth remembering to use probiotics as protective preparations to prevent intestinal dysbiosis, e.g. Multilac, Sanprobi. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/50697/multilac-synbiotyk-kapsulki/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/69127/sanprobi-super-formula-kapsulki/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/89646/cetix-granulat-do-wytworzenia-zawiesiny/apteki
