Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Lebzone Dry Syrup?
Lebzone Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Consult your child's doctor before combining any medicine with Lebzone Dry Syrup to avoid potential interactions. It is crucial to discuss all medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, with your healthcare professional.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Lebzone Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children after vaccination. However, it's best to delay vaccinations until your child recovers from the illness. Once their condition improves, the doctor can determine when and if a vaccine is appropriate.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Lebzone Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Depending on the duration of treatment and individual circumstances, your child's doctor might consider periodic kidney and liver function tests to assess their condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Lebzone Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher dose of Lebzone Dry Syrup than prescribed may increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, consult their doctor for a re-evaluation before taking any action.
Can I stop giving Lebzone Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not discontinue Lebzone Dry Syrup without consulting your child's doctor until the full course of treatment is completed, even if you see improvements. Symptoms may improve before complete eradication of the infection. Therefore, continue taking the medication as prescribed for its intended duration.
Can the use of Lebzone Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Lebzone Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea in some children. This is due to its antibiotic nature, which can disrupt the balance of bacteria in the child's digestive system. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids, particularly water, and consult a doctor if diarrhea persists for an extended period.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral infections do not lead to secondary bacterial infections. The decision to administer antibiotics should be made in consultation with your child's doctor after proper assessment of their condition, as prescribing antibiotics for a viral infection can sometimes increase the risk of side effects and complications.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose is not necessarily a sign of a bacterial infection during a common cold. These changes are typical, and symptoms typically last for 7 to 10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
You should immediately seek medical help if your child experiences: severe allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rashes), gastrointestinal distress (severe diarrhea), or signs of liver damage (weakness, pale skin, vomiting). While rare, these situations require urgent medical intervention.
