    I would be extremely cautious giving phenergan to a child, particularly a child under 12 months. Phenergan has a side effect of sedation and can cause respiratory depression. As a nurse I am cautious giving phenergen to adults. Try speaking with a pharmacist and a second medical opinion might be a good idea. Hope she feels better soon.
