Can my child receive vaccinations while on treatment with Moxylik Dry Syrup?
Generally, antibiotics like Moxylik Dry Syrup do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just been vaccinated. However, it's recommended to wait until the child has recovered from the illness before getting vaccinated.
What lab tests might my child undergo while taking Moxylik Dry Syrup for an extended period?
Prolonged therapy may require monitoring of kidney and liver function tests periodically to ensure your child's condition remains stable.
Can I give a higher dose of Moxylik Dry Syrup than recommended?

No, it's crucial to complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms seem to be improving. This ensures the infection is fully cleared and the medicine continues to exert its beneficial effects.
Does Moxylik Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
