Can I change the dose of Pyribus-M Suspension for my child by myself according to the severity of illness?
No, it is not recommended to alter the dose of the medicine without consulting a doctor.

Can all children be given the same dose of Pyribus-M Suspension?
No, Pyribus-M Suspension cannot be given to everyone in the same dose. The doctor decides the appropriate dose based on the child's age and body weight. Since the dose changes so unpredictably, you must never give any dose of this medicine to anyone without consulting a doctor. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully to get the most benefit.
When will my child feel better?
The doctor may advise you to keep giving Pyribus-M Suspension to your child for a few days to weeks, depending upon the severity of the illness.

In case your child continues to feel unwell even after completion of the full prescribed course of the medicine, consult your child's doctor as soon as possible.
Are there any serious side effects of this medicine for my child?
Pyribus-M Suspension is well-tolerated by most children. However, if your child experiences any intolerable episodes like persistent vomiting, body swelling, decreased urine frequency, serious allergic reaction, and severe pain due to gastric ulcers, then rush to your doctor on an immediate basis.
