Patient's question:
Patient Age: Full MoonCondition Description: The child is just a newborn and showing some symptoms of being startled.
Past Treatment and Effect: No treatment has been administered yet.
Help Needed: Someone recommended taking Zhenjing Wan (Calming Shock Pill). Is there any significant harm associated with it?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, considering the child is a newborn, I don't know what symptoms to take medication for. Young children, due to underdeveloped nervous systems, are prone to sudden startle symptoms that are not caused by fright. It could be due to calcium deficiency. I suggest going to the hospital for a check-up. If it's calcium deficiency, you can take pediatric E-Cxin combined with calcium gluconate, but you don't need to take sedative pills. If it's due to fright, I recommend taking some Amber Dragon Pills. It's safe to eat, with no major harm. You can buy pediatric calming pills. If the child is a month old, take half a pill at a time. For your child, you should spend more time with them and speak in gentle tones. Even though they don't understand now, it will help to soothe them.
