Relo 50mg Syrup is an antibiotic medicine commonly given to children for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial infections. It is also a part of the multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) treatment regimen. Give Relo 50mg Syrup to your child orally, preferably at a fixed time, either before or after meals. In case your child develops a stomach upset, prefer giving it with meals. The dose and duration depend upon the type and severity of the infection, your child's age, and body weight, so stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed by the doctor.
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Relo 50mg Syrup may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
Relo 50mg Syrup is an antibiotic. It 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.
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. Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid within 2 hours of taking Relo 50mg Syrup 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 Relo 50mg Syrup 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 Relo 50mg Syrup to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses.
If your child has taken an extra dose of Relo 50mg Syrup, it's unlikely to cause harm. However, if you notice any unusual symptoms such as seizures, tremors, severe headache, sudden weakness, unconsciousness, or palpitations (irregular heartbeat), seek medical attention immediately.
If your child's symptoms persist despite taking Relo 50mg Syrup as directed, consult with their doctor. They may recommend alternative antibiotics or treatment options to address the underlying infection.
Inform your child's doctor about any other medications they are currently taking before starting Relo 50mg Syrup. Additionally, check with their doctor before giving any new medications to your child.
Antibiotics like Relo 50mg Syrup generally do not interact with vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children. However, it's recommended to wait until the child has fully recovered from their illness before receiving any vaccinations.
Inform your child's doctor about any pre-existing medical conditions such as heart disease, genetic disorders involving blood vessels, seizures, psychiatric disorders, diabetes, photoallergy (sunlight allergy), neuromuscular disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis. This will help the doctor assess potential risks and complications associated with Relo 50mg Syrup.
