Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Azirise Oral Suspension?
Antibiotics usually don't interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a reaction in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not receive vaccinations until they recover from their illness. Once your child is feeling better, they can be given the vaccine.
What lab tests should I get for my child while on long-term Azirise Oral Suspension?
The doctor may order periodic kidney function tests and liver function tests to monitor your child's condition during prolonged treatment with Azirise Oral Suspension.
Does Azirise Oral Suspension affect digestion in children?
Children often experience sensitive stomachs and develop upset during the initial period of medication use, including those containing antibiotics. This is because the good bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract may also be affected. Azirise Oral Suspension can kill off both bad and good bacteria in the gut, increasing your child's risk for other infections. If your child is experiencing diarrhea while taking Azirise Oral Suspension, don't stop the medication course immediately. Instead, contact your child's doctor to discuss the next steps. In some cases, the doctor may adjust the dosage.
Why is Azirise Oral Suspension given for 3 days?
The duration of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated and your child's age. Azirise Oral Suspension is not necessarily given for 3 days. Most bacterial infections receive a single dose of 500 mg for 3 days, while alternative regimens like once-daily dosage or dose adjustments might be followed in some cases.
What should I avoid when taking Azirise Oral Suspension?
It's generally recommended that patients using Azirise Oral Suspension avoid taking antacids with this medication, as it may affect its overall effectiveness. Also, it is advisable to avoid prolonged sunlight exposure or tanning beds, as Azirise Oral Suspension increases the risk of sunburn.
Is Azirise Oral Suspension a strong antibiotic?
Azirise Oral Suspension is an effective antibiotic used for treating various bacterial infections. It has a longer half-life compared to other antibiotics, making it more potent and suitable for single-dose administration once a day. Other antibiotics typically have shorter half-lives and require multiple doses per day.
Can I get a yeast infection from taking Azirise Oral Suspension?
Some individuals may experience a fungal or yeast infection known as thrush after taking Azirise Oral Suspension. Antibiotics can suppress the normal bacteria in the gut responsible for preventing thrush. If you experience symptoms such as a sore throat, vaginal itching, discharge, white patches in your mouth or tongue, immediately inform your doctor.
