Pedicloryl syr should not be used regularly for sedating baby under normal cicumstances . Should be used only if baby was to undergo some tests like USg or 2 D echo where child has to be sedated. Baby is cranky most of the times because maybe baby is hungry . Baby should be breastfed on demand and also put on expressed breast milk which can be given by watispoon and kept warm . Not only will baby sleep properly if fed well and kept warm , he will also put on weight and requirement for pediclory will not be there.

No medication is advisable for a routine problem so I would not recommend you to give pedicloryl for it as it would only give a immediate relief but would not solve the root problem. It is important to identify the problem. Inadequate feeding, improper sleeping atmosphere or temperature (too warm or too cold) too much noise etc. Are some of the most common problems. A healthy baby feeds for 15-20 mins at one time which should be followed by burping for 10-15 mins for a comfortable stomach and sleep. Try to look for the root problem before turning to medicine.
