Introduction

Odifex Oral Suspension is an antihistamine medication commonly prescribed for children to alleviate symptoms associated with allergic conditions like hay fever, urticaria (hives), conjunctivitis (red, itchy eyes), and the common cold. These symptoms include watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, and itching. While effective, it may cause drowsiness or dizziness, and should be used with caution in children under 12 years of age due to the risk of respiratory distress. It is important to avoid administering this medication with fatty meals or fruit juice as they can reduce its absorption.

Administer Odifex Oral Suspension to your child as prescribed by the doctor. It is best given at the same time each day to help remember the dosage. Avoid giving it with fatty meals or fruit juice.

Odifex Oral Suspension belongs to a class of medicines called antihistamines. It blocks the natural chemical substance (histamine) produced in the body during an allergic state and lowers the immune system’s response to these conditions.

Try giving the medicines at the same time each day to help you remember. Your child may feel sleepy or dizzy after each dose of Odifex Oral Suspension. If this happens, make your child sit or lie down and ask them to be careful while performing tasks that require mental focus. Avoid giving Odifex Oral Suspension with fatty meals and fruit juice as both can reduce the absorption of the medicine. Odifex Oral Suspension should be avoided in children who are less than 12 years of age as there is a risk of respiratory distress. Practice self-care tips: Abstain your child from coming in contact with allergens, maintain a neat and clean ambiance around your child, encourage your child to wear a face mask and avoid dusty places, and use air conditioners instead of opening windows during the pollen season.
