Infants and toddlers have a weak resistance and some minor illnesses such as headaches and fever occasionally occur, so feeding medicine to infants has become quite a headache for many parents. On the one hand, because oral medication is generally more bitter, it is difficult for children to eat, on the other hand, some parents lack the knowledge to feed their children, will bring new injuries to children because of improper feeding. In fact, there are quite a few things to know about giving medicine to children. First of all, the method of pinching the child’s nose to feed the medicine should not be. This is because, pinch the child’s nose when the child because of poor breathing had to breathe with the mouth, if the medicine into the child’s mouth at this time, it is easy to cause the drug choked into the child’s trachea, once the trachea is blocked by a foreign body, it is easy to cause the child suffocation, rescue is not timely, and even fatal risk. In addition, pinch nose feeding medicine is also easy to destroy the affection, strengthen the child’s distrust of the outside world and even relatives, may induce psychological disorders. Secondly, it is not advisable to feed medicine to babies while they are lying down. If an infant takes medicine lying down, it is easy to choke and cause suffocation. At the same time, lying down to take medicine, is not conducive to tablets, liquid directly into the stomach, easy to stay on the esophagus, so that not only will reduce the efficacy of the drug, resulting in waste, and even delay the disease, and the drug will produce a relatively strong stimulating effect on the esophagus, but also may burn the esophagus, the health of the esophagus has a serious injury. In addition, some parents in order to reduce the bitter taste of drugs to children, like to feed the baby before and after the feeding of drugs, in fact, this feeding method should not be advocated. This is because feeding the child before the medicine will make the baby in a full state, no longer want to eat, when feeding the medicine, the child may be very resistant, thus making it more difficult to feed the medicine. If you feed your child after the medication is given, spitting up may occur, which not only causes discomfort to the infant, but also greatly reduces the effect of the medication and may cause irritation and injury to the esophagus because the medication is spit back into the esophagus. Therefore, when feeding medicine to infants, let the child sit or half lie down, and the time interval between feeding medicine and breastfeeding should preferably be more than thirty minutes. At the same time, after taking medicine, the infant should be fed a certain amount of warm water to ensure that the medicine in the child’s mouth and esophagus is sent to the stomach.
