If your doctor has prescribed those medicines and you r under regular follow up. Then he would have done so with a very strong reason, I think you should have faith in your doctor's clinical judgement and go ahead with the treatment. Or perhaps have a good discussion with the doctor about the health of your child, i'm sure your doctor will be glad to resolve your worries.

Constipation may be due to large number if reasons in children. Mainly depends on diet and habits of children. Feed him food with high dietary fiber like green leafy vegetables, fruits (not juices), beans, nuts etc. Considering the child is 10-12 kgs, I suggest you use duphalac solution 10 ml at every night after food. If this all fails he may need to be investigated further for evaluation. Dr. Sumanth marthyaya md pediatrics.

Hello lybrate-user. Speech therapy will take longer time and may not give sufficient results until the weakness is not corrected from its core. My suggestion is to take proper homoeopathic treatment. You can consult me at Lybrate. Till then take baryta iod 1m.
