Fluzet contains Antiallergic medication(Clorpheniramin) is known to cause hyperactivity in children. Kindly put him also some nasal drops in his nose and ask him to gargle 4 times a day with a medicated gargle.That should take care of the problem. Fluzet can give nausea,allergic reaction,skin rash. If your baby will have the following side effects then you should stop giving this medication.  Meftal is more effective for fever.As any remedy it can give skin rash, urticaria, and edema. After overdose dizziness and other Central Nervous System manifestations such as drowsiness, visual disturbances and convulsions can occur.

Muco-salvin rarely can give stomach upset, diarrhea, constipation, heartburn, nausea, indigestion and vomiting.Hope this answers your query.Wishing your child a speedy recovery.Have a nice day.
