How it works
Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup is an antibiotic that works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) which is essential for the survival of the bacteria.

Additionally, consult your child's doctor before administering any other medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics typically do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not receive vaccinations until they have recovered from their illness. Once your child has recovered, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Your child's doctor may recommend periodic kidney function tests and liver function tests to monitor their condition while taking Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup long-term.
The mucus coming out of my child's nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not necessarily indicate the need for antibiotics. During a common cold, it is common for mucus to thicken and change color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
My child is having a sore throat and ear infection. Can I give antibiotics?
No, antibiotics are not typically prescribed for sore throats and ear infections caused by viruses. If your child is experiencing a sore throat, runny nose, a barky cough, pain, and discharge from the ear, it is likely due to a viral infection. Consult your child's doctor for guidance.
Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When to start an antibiotic to prevent infection?
In most cases, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics to treat viral infections may lead to side effects without benefiting your child's health. Consult your child's doctor before using antibiotics.
Can Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup impact my child's digestive system?
Children often experience stomach upset while taking antibiotics, and Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup may also kill off the good bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract, increasing the risk of developing other infections. If your child experiences diarrhea while taking Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup, do not stop the medication course. Instead, consult your child's doctor for guidance.
Can Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup lead to bacterial resistance in my child?
Yes, irregular treatment, repeated use, and misuse of Rosepod 50mg Dry Syrup can lead to bacterial resistance. Resistant bacteria are no longer killed by the antibiotics and may lead to reinfection.
