When Db had it he went nuts! He stopped sleeping, refused to go to bed at night, it was the most bizarre week ever. I'll never give it to him again.]]> Mon, 02 Nov 2009 09:34:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=822925&title=redipred-for-a-cold#822925 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=819837&title=redipred-for-a-cold#819837 Author: kiwisj

We were given Redipred for Callum when we were home earlier this month. The doc thought he had bronchiolitis. C definitely was quite wheezy and had a constant cough that was stopping him from getting any sleep!]]> Thu, 29 Oct 2009 13:35:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=819837&title=redipred-for-a-cold#819837 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=816843&title=redipred-for-a-cold#816843 Author: LittleBug

We've only had redipred in more extreme cases, lots of wheezing, inhalers, etc.

Did the Dr listen to her chest? Maybe he/she prescribed it because her chest was sounding tight? If you are worried about giving it then I would ring and ask the reasoning.]]> Mon, 26 Oct 2009 12:44:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=816843&title=redipred-for-a-cold#816843 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=812601&title=redipred-for-a-cold#812601 Author: Snappy

We were prescribed redipred when Jackson had a cough too, I didn't give it to him.

I have used it in the past for Janaya and her asthma )Usually after an attack and a nebuliser. The redipred keeps the tubes open to help them breathe I think.]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 20:03:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=812601&title=redipred-for-a-cold#812601 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=812107&title=redipred-for-a-cold#812107 Author: Nikki

Jakes had it a few times but his is asthma related, and he gets really rattly / chest infections when he is like that. I would probably hold off on giving it if you don't think its necessary, or call to check. They may have given it cos its been going on for a couple of weeks and are worried about another infection starting?]]> Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:00:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=812107&title=redipred-for-a-cold#812107 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=811663&title=redipred-for-a-cold#811663 Author: AandCsmum

Sounds extreme!

Cooper just had redipred but he had rattling chest, blue lips & wheezing. Also had a nebulise so it was an extreme case.

Can you phone the Dr tomorrow & ask their reasoning behind it?]]> Mon, 19 Oct 2009 22:41:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=811663&title=redipred-for-a-cold#811663 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=811164&title=redipred-for-a-cold#811164 Author: denny25

Ava has had a bad cold and ear infections for the past couple of weeks. She has been on 2 lots of antibiotics and she still has a little cough and a runny nose.

Last night she was coughing on and off a bit so today I took her back to the Dr. She prescribed Redipred. From what I have read it is a really strong steriod usually reserved for Croup and Asthma.

Im worried about giving it too her - her cough is not wheezy or horrible, just a dry cough that seems slightly worse at night. It is by no means constant.

Thoughts??]]> Mon, 19 Oct 2009 16:29:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=29453&PID=811164&title=redipred-for-a-cold#811164
