Frequently asked questions
When will my child start feeling better after taking Flexon Suspension?
Your child may need to take Flexon Suspension for a few days to weeks, depending on the severity of the infection. Continue to give the medicine to your child as directed by the doctor. You will likely notice a reduction in pain or fever, and your child will start feeling better. If your child continues to feel unwell after completing the full prescribed course of medicine, consult the doctor for further guidance.
My child's fever persists even after taking Flexon Suspension. What should I do?
If the fever does not subside after the initial few doses, it may be due to an infection (virus or bacteria). Consult your child's doctor for specific treatment advice.
Can I adjust the dose of Flexon Suspension for my child based on the severity of their illness?
No, it is not recommended to alter the dose of the medicine without consulting a doctor. Increasing the dose may lead to toxicity, while decreasing the dose may bring back symptoms. Instead, speak to your child's doctor if you feel a change in dose may be necessary.

Can I give Flexon Suspension on a routine basis when my child is taking a vaccine?
