medication for 4 months +, given to a 1 month old

[Kylieemilyj]

^^ My little boy has been prescribed a gel for oral thrush, but looking at the box it is only for 4 months +, so i called the doctor who said it is fine, as it is not a constant use medication (thrush meds wouldnt be surely) Is it safe for him to use? Im guessing its more as it could be a choking hazard for him. Obviously i trust my doctor but at the same time I am worried about my baby...

Can you speak to a pharmacist? They might have knowledge of the gel and be able to advise.

It didn't used to be 4 months+ but looks like there were choking incidents so just be careful how you apply it

Sorry it's Pdf file from the breastfeeding network

Does anyone also know how I’m supposed to measure out the dosage? It says 1.25ml, and obviousky you do it in tiny amounts but how do I know how much that actually is?
