Try giving the medicines at the same time each day to help you remember. Your child may feel sleepy or dizzy after each dose of Ldoc Syrup. If this happens, make your child sit or lie down and ask them to be careful while performing tasks that require mental focus. Avoid giving Ldoc Syrup with fatty meals and fruit juice as both can reduce the absorption of the medicine. Dry mouth can occur as a side effect of taking Ldoc Syrup. Taking sips of water may help. Ldoc Syrup can trigger constipation in your child. Give plenty of fluids and a fiber-rich diet to your child.
