Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Lenic Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause a negative reaction in children after vaccination. However, it's crucial to avoid vaccinating your child until they recover from any illness before starting antibiotic therapy. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests might my child undergo on a long-term basis while taking Lenic Dry Syrup?
Periodically, if your child is on prolonged treatment with Lenic Dry Syrup, their doctor may order kidney and liver function tests to monitor their condition.
Can I give a higher than recommended dose of Lenic Dry Syrup to my child?
It's not recommended to administer a higher dosage of this medication. Doing so can lead to increased side effects. If your child experiences symptom intensification, consult your doctor for a re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Lenic Dry Syrup to my child when symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue Lenic Dry Syrup before completing the entire prescribed course. Even if you observe improvement in your child's condition, it is essential to complete the full dosage as there could be remaining beneficial effects.
Can Lenic Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Lenic Dry Syrup can induce diarrhea. It's an antibiotic that targets harmful bacteria. Additionally, it can influence the balance of good and bad bacteria in your child's gut, leading to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids, such as water, to alleviate any discomfort caused by this side effect. If the diarrhea persists or you observe signs of dehydration, such as reduced urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, seek guidance from your doctor before giving them any other medication.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral infections do not lead to secondary bacterial infections. Using antibiotics during a viral infection can even increase the risk of side effects. It's essential to consult with your child's doctor for antibiotic use.
What signs indicate my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate care from your child's doctor if they experience severe allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rash), gastrointestinal issues (diarrhea), and liver damage (weakness, pale complexion, vomiting). Although rare, these are serious side effects requiring expert intervention.
