What should I do if my child has liver failure with high blood ammonia levels and needs treatment with Cefora LB Dry Syrup?
It's best to avoid using Cefora LB Dry Syrup in such cases, as it contains lactobacillus that can increase blood ammonia levels and lead to serious complications like coma.
What if I accidentally give my child too much Cefora LB Dry Syrup?
Don't exceed the recommended dose of Cefora LB Dry Syrup, as an overdose may cause unwanted side effects and worsen your child's condition. If you think you've given too much, contact a doctor immediately.
What are some rare but serious potential side effects of Cefora LB Dry Syrup?
Cefora LB Dry Syrup can rarely cause severe side effects such as persistent vomiting, kidney damage, and allergic reactions. Consult your child's doctor if you notice any unusual symptoms.
Can I give my child other medicines along with Cefora LB Dry Syrup?
Tell your child's doctor about any other medications they're taking before starting Cefora LB Dry Syrup. Also, consult the doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
Does taking Cefora LB Dry Syrup affect my child's ability to get vaccinated?

What does yellow-green mucus in my child's nose indicate?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose doesn't necessarily mean a bacterial infection requires antibiotics. It's normal for mucus to thicken and change color as part of a common cold, which usually lasts 7-10 days.
