<s>[INST] My son is 2 years old and 3 months, we are currently potty training and I recently (4 days ago) noticed that his urine smells VERY strong.. a strong ammonia smell. But not all the time he urinates.. Now two days later he suddenly developed a dry cough. [/INST] Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.  Normally, urine that contains a lot of water has little to no odor. If your baby's urine becomes highly concentrated and very yellow — a high level of waste products with little water — urine odor may have a strong ammonia smell.Many foods and medications, such as lots of chocolate,peas,beans or certain vitamins, can affect the odor of urine. Sometimes, unusual urine odor may indicate a medical condition or disease, such as:-Urine tract infection-Dehydration-Diabetic ketoacidosis (high levels of blood acids called ketones)-Gastrointestinal dysbiosis, which lead to increase of uric acid and ketoacidosis -Maple syrup urine disease (rare genetic disease that causes difficulty breaking down certain amino acids)-Metabolic disorder If I were your treating Doctor for this case I would suggest:1. Keep your baby hydrated with plenty of water or ORS.2.Hypouricosuric diet-avoid products, enriched with uric acid(spinach,beets,radish,chocolate,peas).3.For better digestion I advise my patients to take Enzyme's syrup.4. Also take probiotics group of medicines like as Darolac, Visilac 1 capsule once a day for normal flora of intestine. Start on these changes and get back to me in 2 to 3 months. Wish you and your son good health. </s>
