Hello doctor,I want to fly with my three-month-old infant. What are the precautions to be taken while flying? Should I carry any medications with me?
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum. I have reviewed your query and can understand the sensitivity of the situation here. If your infant is on no medications right now, has no allergies, or disease, there is no need to worry about. No special precautions are needed in that case. I would recommend Acetaminophen (Tylenol) to be kept with you in case the baby needs it for any reason. Otherwise, nothing much is needed. The flight safety precautions can be obtained from the airline website and it would be better to get a bassinet for the baby. Hope it helps. Feel free to ask me more questions if you need further assistance. For more information consult an internal medicine physician online
