Frequently asked questions
What if I give too much of Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension by mistake?
An extra dose of Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension is unlikely to harm. However, if you think you have given too much to your child, immediately speak to a doctor.

Rush to your child’s doctor on an immediate basis if you notice any of these symptoms.
What should I do if my child shows no improvement even after taking Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension for the prescribed duration?
Ineffective treatment with Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension could mean that the medicine is not able to act against the infection-causing bacteria. In such a case, visit your child’s doctor who may prescribe some other antibiotic that would be more specific in action. Not all medicines are given by oral route, some may have to be given by IV route (intravenous injection) in the hospital.

Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a bad reaction in a child who has just been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not get vaccinated until they recover from the illness. As soon as your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.
What should I tell the doctor before giving Ceeflox 50mg Oral Suspension to my child?
