Side Effects

No common side effects listed

Nyaflox MS Syrup works by interfering with the genetic material of bacteria, killing the infection-causing bacteria and preventing their growth. Simethicone, one of the active ingredients, helps to remove gas bubbles and provides relief in stomach pain and bloating.

Diarrhea is a common side effect of this medicine. If it occurs, make sure your child drinks plenty of water. Your child may have an altered taste or furry tongue (coating of Nyaflox MS Syrup on tongue) after taking Nyaflox MS Syrup. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help. Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid within 2 hours of taking Nyaflox MS Syrup 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 Nyaflox MS Syrup treats only bacterial infections. Discontinue Nyaflox MS Syrup and inform the doctor immediately if your child develops a rash, itchy skin, swelling of face and mouth, or has difficulty in breathing.
