Frequently asked questions
What if I accidentally give my child too much Heof 50mg Syrup?
If you suspect that your child has received an excessive dose of Heof 50mg Syrup, it is essential to consult with a doctor immediately. While an extra dose is unlikely to cause harm, it may lead to unwanted side effects such as seizures, tremors, severe headaches, sudden weakness, unconsciousness, and palpitations (irregular heartbeat). If you notice any of these symptoms, seek medical attention promptly.
What should I do if my child shows no improvement after taking Heof 50mg Syrup for the prescribed duration?
If your child does not show signs of improvement after taking Heof 50mg Syrup for the recommended period, it may indicate that the medicine is not effective against the underlying infection.

Additionally, some antibiotics may require administration through an IV route in a hospital setting.
Can other medicines be taken with Heof 50mg Syrup?

Can my child receive vaccinations while taking Heof 50mg Syrup?
Antibiotics typically do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated.
