Introduction

Doucef 50 Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine used to treat various bacterial infections in children, including those affecting the ear, eyes, nose, throat, lungs, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tract. It is also effective in treating uncomplicated typhoid fever in children and adolescents. The medication works by preventing the formation of the bacterial cell wall, which is essential for bacterial survival. This action stops the bacteria from growing and spreading, thereby treating the infection. It is important to complete the entire course of antibiotics to prevent the bacteria from becoming resistant or causing another infection. Common side effects are not listed, but any severe reactions such as an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties should be reported to a doctor immediately.

Give this medicine with food to avoid an upset stomach. Ensure your child completes the entire course of antibiotics. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water if diarrhea develops as a side effect.

Doucef 50 Dry Syrup works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall), which is essential for the survival of the bacteria. This stops the infection-causing bacteria from growing further and prevents the infection from spreading.

Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again, become resistant, or cause another infection. Give this medicine with food to avoid an upset stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Conditions like common cold and flu are caused by viruses. Never use this medicine for such conditions. Only give Doucef 50 Dry Syrup to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Stop this medicine and immediately report to your child’s doctor in case your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties while taking this medicine.
