My son has been dealing with reoccurring bronchitis and acid reflux since last May. He is currently taking the following medications: Mucinex 100 mg/5 ml 2 tsp 2 x daily, Extendryl Chewable tab 1 tab 2 x daily, Prevacid 15 mg solutab 1 tab 2 x daily, Metoclopram sol 5mg/5ml 4 x daily before meals and bedtime, Delsym ½ tsp 2 x daily, Zithromax 100 mg/5ml 1 tsp daily 3 x per week for prophylaxis antibiotics due to recurrent bronchitis, Albuterol 0.083% nebulization 4 x per day mixed with Ipratropium Bromide 2.5 ml alternate with Pulmicort respules 0.5 ml.

I’m concerned that all these medicines on such a small child could be harmful to his body. He is 4 ½ years old and weighs 38 lbs. He is sick now, so when he is well we reduce the breathing treatments to Albuterol only and usually twice a day and Mucinex to 1 tsp 2 x daily. We are currently on the Zithromax daily for 10 days.
