As baby's immune systems are still developing and a chest/lung infection in a baby could turn nasty very quickly it's probably best you stay away

Hello, Naresh. about twice a year I get a bad chest infection and I take Prednisilone (steroids) and Amozicillin (antibiotics). I have never been advised to keep away from other people, I thought it was just a part of my C.O.P.D. I hope the medication works for you.

My husband seems better when taking Prednisilone but he has put on a lot of weight which is not helping him generally. He seems to be almost admitted to the drug. Does anyone know of an alternative drug to help him?
