Not recommended to give Dexamethasone to your 7 month old unless you consult a pediatrician or a specialist. Dexamethasone is a steroid drug that is used to treat a variety of conditions, but its use in infants needs to be done after careful consideration of the dosage and side effects. Please consult a pediatrician for advice on your baby's specific case and treatment options.
