Frequently asked questions
What if I give too much of Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup by mistake?
Giving an extra dose of Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup is unlikely to cause harm, but it's important to contact a doctor immediately if you think your child has taken too much. Overdose can lead to unwanted side effects and may worsen the child’s condition.
Are there any possible serious side effects of Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup?
Serious side effects of this medicine include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergic reactions, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. It's crucial to consult a doctor if your child experiences any of these side effects.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup?
Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup might interact with other medicines or substances. Before starting Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup, tell your doctor about any other medications your child is taking. Consult your doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics rarely interfere with vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it's important to wait until your child recovers from the illness before giving them a vaccine. Once your child is feeling better, they can get the vaccine.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
The doctor may order kidney function and liver function tests periodically to check your child's health while on the medication.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not necessarily mean that antibiotics are needed. During a common cold, it's normal for mucus to thicken and change from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms typically last for 7-10 days.
My child is having a sore throat and ear infection. Can I give antibiotics?
No, not without specific guidance. Over 80% of sore throats and ear infections are caused by viruses and antibiotics aren't used for them. If your child has a sore throat, runny nose, a barky cough, pain, and discharge from the ear, it is most likely due to a virus. Consult your doctor for advice.
Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When to start an antibiotic to prevent infection?
In most cases, bacterial infections don't follow viral infections. Using antibiotics for viral infections can lead to side effects without helping your child’s health. Use antibiotics only after consulting with your doctor.
Can Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup impact my child’s digestive system?
Children's stomachs are sensitive, and they often experience stomach upset when taking antibiotics. Antibiotics can also harm the good bacteria in their gut, potentially leading to a higher risk of infections. If your child has diarrhea while on Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup, don't stop the medication course without consulting with their doctor. Instead, call them for instructions on next steps and dosage adjustments if necessary.
Can Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup lead to bacterial resistance in my child?
Yes, irregular treatment, repeated use, or misuse of Blispod 50mg Dry Syrup can lead to bacteria becoming resistant. This means that the antibiotics no longer work effectively against them, and they may return with infections.
