Introduction
Azibio Syrup works by inhibiting the growth of the infection-causing bacteria and stopping it from multiplying. As a result of this, the spread of the infection is disabled. Azibio Syrup is usually given once a day, preferably in the morning. However, in the case of typhoid, it is to be given twice. Give it with or without food at about the same time each day. However, it is best given with food since children often have a sensitive stomach and could easily get a stomach upset. Medicine dose depends on the type of infection your child has, its severity, and your child's age and body weight. So stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed by the doctor.

Are there any possible serious side effects of Azibio Syrup?
Some potential serious side effects of this medicine include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergies, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. It is crucial to consult a doctor if you encounter these symptoms.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Azibio Syrup?
Azibio Syrup can sometimes interact with other medications or substances. Before starting Azibio Syrup, inform your child's doctor about all other medications they are taking. Additionally, consult a doctor before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Azibio Syrup?
Antibiotics typically do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is recommended to wait until the child recovers from the illness before giving them a vaccine. Once the child feels better, they can receive the vaccine. Consult your doctor if you're unsure.
Which all lab tests should my child undergo while taking Azibio Syrup on a long term basis?
Your child's doctor may recommend regular kidney function tests and liver function tests during prolonged treatment to monitor their condition.
Can Azibio Syrup impact my child’s digestion?
Children often experience digestive upset while taking medicines. When antibiotics are administered, the good bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract may also be affected. Azibio Syrup could potentially kill off beneficial bacteria, increasing your child's risk of developing other infections. If your child experiences diarrhea while taking Azibio Syrup, do not stop the medication course. Instead, contact your child's doctor to discuss next steps and adjustments to dosage as needed.
Why is Azibio Syrup given for 3 days?
The duration of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated and the age of the patient. Azibio Syrup is not necessarily administered for three days. For bacterial infections, a single dose of 500mg is typically given over 3 days. Alternatively, it might be administered as 500mg once on day 1, then 250mg once from day 2 to day 5. In some cases related to genital ulcer disease, a single dose of 1 gram is prescribed. Please follow the recommended treatment regimen provided by your doctor.
What should I avoid while taking Azibio Syrup?
It's advisable to avoid taking antacids with this medicine as it may affect the medication's efficacy. Additionally, avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning bed use, as Azibio Syrup can increase the risk of sunburn.
Is Azibio Syrup a strong antibiotic?
Azibio Syrup is an effective antibiotic often used to treat many bacterial infections. It boasts a longer half-life compared to other antibiotics, meaning it remains in the body for a considerable duration (usually once daily) and provides a more consistent level of treatment.
Can you get a yeast infection from taking Azibio Syrup?
Some individuals may develop a fungal or yeast infection known as thrush after taking Azibio Syrup. Antibiotics like Azibio Syrup can disrupt the natural balance of bacteria in your gut, potentially increasing the risk of thrush. If you experience symptoms like sore throat, vaginal itching, discharge, or white patches on the mouth or tongue, it's crucial to inform your doctor immediately.
