According to my consultant paediatricians, using Piccan, babyrex or Bonabebe for baby is not acceptable because it has a long-term effect which is terrible for my baby. They all contain paracetamol. You don't need to use either Piccan or Bonabebe.

I understand that VSD is a hole in the wall separating the two lower chambers of the heart. In normal development, the wall between the chambers closes before the fetus is born, so that by birth, oxygen-rich blood is kept from mixing with the oxygen-poor blood.
