Key Information
Short Description
Metacon-O Oral Suspension is given to children for the treatment of bacterial infections of the teeth, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, and genital tract.
Dosage Form
Oral Suspension
Introduction
Metacon-O Oral Suspension is a combination of three active ingredients. While two of its ingredients, namely ofloxacin and metronidazole are antibiotics, simethicone is a gas-absorbing agent that improves gastric tolerability of the combination.
Directions for Use
Only give Metacon-O Oral Suspension to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses.
How it works
The antibiotic ingredients interfere with the genetic material of bacteria by impairing its DNA. This kills the infection-causing bacteria, preventing its growth and stopping the infection. Simethicone binds with the gas bubbles produced as a result of the other two ingredients or as a result of some other problem, aiding in the removal of gases and providing relief in stomach pain and bloating.
Quick Tips
Diarrhea is a common side effect of this medicine. If it occurs, make sure your child drinks plenty of water. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help if your child has an altered taste or furry tongue. Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid within 2 hours of taking Metacon-O Oral Suspension as these can affect the absorption of the medicine. Never use this medicine for the common cold and flu as they are caused by viruses and Metacon-O Oral Suspension treats only bacterial infections. Discontinue Metacon-O Oral Suspension and inform the doctor immediately if your child develops a rash, itchy skin, swelling of face and mouth, or has difficulty in breathing. Only give Metacon-O Oral Suspension to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses.
