Introduction
Myflo Oral Suspension is an antibiotic medicine commonly given to children for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial infections. It is also part of the multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) treatment regimen. This medicine is used to target infections in various parts of the body, including the eyes, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, abdomen, and urinary tract.
Directions for Use
Do not panic. You can give the medicine as soon as you remember unless your child's doctor has advised a specific regime for your child. In case of any confusion, do consult your doctor. Do not double the dose to catch up.
How it works
Myflo Oral Suspension is an antibiotic that interferes with the genetic material of bacteria by implanting defects in its DNA. These defects hamper the multiplication of the bacteria and affect its survival as well. Thus, it kills the infection-causing bacteria from growing further and prevents the infection from spreading without making them resistant to further treatment.
Quick Tips
Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid within 2 hours of taking Myflo Oral Suspension as these can affect the absorption of the medicine. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Conditions like common cold and flu are caused by viruses. Never use this medicine for such conditions. Discontinue Myflo 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 Myflo Oral Suspension to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses.

Frequently asked questions
What if I accidentally give my child too much Myflo Oral Suspension?
If you think you have given too much Myflo Oral Suspension to your child, seek immediate medical attention from a doctor. While an extra dose is unlikely to cause harm, it may lead to severe side effects such as seizures, tremors, severe headache, sudden weakness, unconsciousness, and palpitations (irregularities of heartbeat).
What should I do if my child shows no improvement after taking Myflo Oral Suspension for the prescribed duration?
If your child does not show improvement after taking Myflo Oral Suspension for the prescribed duration, it may indicate that the medicine is not effective against the infection-causing bacteria. In this case, consult your child's doctor, who may prescribe an alternative antibiotic or recommend a different treatment approach. In some cases, the doctor may recommend hospitalization for intravenous administration of the antibiotic.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Myflo Oral Suspension?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Myflo Oral Suspension. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any other medicine to your child, as Myflo Oral Suspension may interact with other substances.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Myflo Oral Suspension?
Antibiotics like Myflo Oral Suspension usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just been vaccinated. However, it is recommended to wait until your child has fully recovered from the illness before getting vaccinated.
What should I tell the doctor before giving Myflo Oral Suspension to my child?
Inform your child's doctor about any pre-existing medical conditions, including heart disease, genetic disorders involving blood vessels, seizures, psychiatric disorders, diabetes, photoallergy, neuromuscular disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis, as Myflo Oral Suspension may exacerbate these conditions and lead to complications.
