Have a paediatrics question? MedDroid's free AI explains it in plain language, in your language, and helps you understand when to see a specialist. Children's fever, cough, rashes, feeding and vaccination questions.
MedDroid explains general home care (fluids, rest, appropriate fever medicine by weight) and — most importantly — the red flags that need urgent care in children: difficulty breathing, a non-fading rash, drowsiness, dehydration, or fever in a very young infant. When in doubt with a child, see a doctor.
Children’s doses depend on weight and age, so MedDroid gives general guidance and always tells you to confirm the exact dose with your paediatrician or pharmacist.
MedDroid explains reassuring vs concerning features (fast/laboured breathing, wheeze, blue lips, high persistent fever) and when a child needs to be seen.
MedDroid is an AI medical assistant and can make mistakes. It provides general health information, not a diagnosis or medical advice — always consult a qualified clinician. In an emergency, contact your local emergency number immediately.
