Never give your child medicines that have been recommended for use by adults. Children should only be given medicines specifically formulated for them, as adult medicines may cause unwanted side effects. Always check the label of the medicine properly before use in your child. Give the medicine to your child in the prescribed dose specifically. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is best to consult your child's doctor for further guidance.
