Covid and children, new indications for home care

In asymptomatic children it is not necessary to administer any drug, while in those who experience flu-like symptoms it is advisable, if necessary, on the recommendation of the pediatrician, to administer symptomatic therapy with Paracetamol or Ibuprofen. During the illness it is advisable for the patient to rest and take fluids. These are the indications of the new circular from the Ministry of Health that updates on the ‘Home management of patients with Covid-19 infection in pediatric age’.
