Can I put conjunctivitis drops in an 18 day old baby? I have already tried saline in the nose. He has runny yellow crusty eyes.

Hello Ma'am,
No, it's best not to apply the conjunctivitis drops (especially if you already had them at home and the jar was opened more than a month ago).
Instead, go to the pharmacy with pictures of your baby to show the pharmacist. He or she will be able to direct you based on the observations.
Sorry I can't be more helpful at this time.
Good evening,
Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
