Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Bromolin 125 mg/4 mg Tablet DT ?

The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?

Change in the color and consistency of mucus in common cold is normal. This does not mean that your child needs antibiotics. Common cold symptoms often last for 7-10 days. In case the symptoms fail to clear up within this duration, reach out to your child’s doctor for guidance.

Is Bromolin 125 mg/4 mg Tablet DT safe for children suffering from infectious mononucleosis?
