View Full Version : Manchester might have aspiration?!

We have a baby that I think might have aspiration. As he's grown, he started getting to where he can just suck the formula right out of the syringe so before we realized it he can drink a LOT very quickly. Last night he had a bit coming out of his nose and was wheezing/sneezing a bit...this morning he hasn't been super interested in eating.

He's not clicking/sneezing now that I've bundled him up and am holding him on my chest to keep an eye on him, but wanted to start the conversation in case it comes back.

He is aprox 6-7 weeks 110g and I have Ciproflaxacin 500mg tabs.

Can someone tell me the dosage he'll need and how to administer it...and also if I should wait now that he's stopped sneezing (his breath is still a bit wheezy though...and sneezing sporadically.)

Thanks in advance for your advice!
