Parents and caregivers can sterilize water at home using the following methods:
Boiling: Boil water for at least one minute (or three minutes at higher altitudes) and then let it cool. This is the most common and effective method. Filtration Systems: Some advanced filtration systems can remove microorganisms. However, it’s essential to ensure that the system is certified for this purpose. Chemical Treatments: Using water purification tablets that contain chemicals like iodine or chlorine can be an alternative, although this is less common for pediatric use.
