Tell your child's doctor if your child has had any previous episode of allergy, heart problem, blood disorder, birth defects, airway obstruction, lung anomaly, gastrointestinal problem, skin disorder, and kidney malfunction. Knowledge of your child's medical history will help the doctor make dose alterations and plan your child's overall treatment.
