By doing so, this medicine stops the infection-causing bacteria from growing further and prevents the infection from spreading without causing resistance against further treatment.

Alclor Suspension is not recommended for children less than 1 month of age. Ensure that your child completes the entire course of antibiotics. Give this medicine with food to avoid an upset stomach. Give your child plenty of water if they develop diarrhea as a side effect. Conditions like common cold and flu are caused by viruses. Never use this medicine for such conditions.
