What if I give too much of Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup by mistake?
Do not give more than the recommended dose because overdose may cause unwanted side effects and may even worsen your child’s condition. Although an extra dose of Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup is unlikely to harm, if you think you have given too much to your child, immediately speak to a doctor.
Are there any possible serious side effects of Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup?
In rare cases, Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup may cause some serious side effects like persistent vomiting, kidney damage, and allergy. Always consult your child’s doctor for help in such a situation.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup?
Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup may interact with other medicines or substances. It is important to tell your doctor about all medications your child is taking before starting Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup. Also, consult a doctor before administering any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Cefo L Rediuse Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics do not usually 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 be vaccinated until they recover from the illness. As soon as your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
No, yellow or green mucus in the nose does not mean that antibiotics are needed. This is normal for mucus to thicken and change from clear to yellow or green as a common cold progresses.
