This may be a really dumb question but is TOBI just for CF'ers or do they treat other kinds of patients with it?
The reason I ask is, I was told not to take it around babies. Because they will build up immunities to the drug and if needed to be on it someday, they couldn't be.
But if the baby didn't have CF why would they need to worry about it?
My sister in law is coming to visit and has my 8 month old nephew with her. There planning a trip on a "on TOBI" month for me. So I wanted to make sure to do whats safe for her son and also not quite taking a drug I need if it isn't necessary.
Just wondering what you guys have done in situations like this or if you've been told this as well?
