You may also check the label or the leaflet inside the packaging for directions before use. The commonly recommended dose is 10-15 mg/kg per dose every 4 to 6 hours.
When will my child's condition improve after taking Sanmol Syrup?
Sanmol Syrup usually starts working within 30 to 60 minutes of intake and shows its peak effect within 3 to 4 hours. You may see your child start to feel better after a few doses. However, it is important to continue the medication as prescribed by your doctor. If the pain or fever persists longer than expected, consult your child’s doctor immediately.
My child vomited after taking Sanmol Syrup. What should I do?
If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking Sanmol Syrup, repeat the dose again. If it has been more than 30 minutes after taking Sanmol Syrup and your child vomits, no need to repeat the dose and wait until it is time for the next dose. If you are not sure, consult your doctor.
Can I give Sanmol Syrup to my child for low-grade fever?
You can give this medicine if your child has a temperature of 38.3°C (101°F) or higher. But, you must always try to speak to your child’s doctor first.
My child's fever is persistent even after taking Sanmol Syrup. What should I do?
If the fever doesn't come down after the initial few doses, the cause might be an infection (virus or bacteria). It is advised to consult your child’s doctor for specific treatment.
What is considered as an overdose of Sanmol Syrup?
You should only take four doses of Sanmol Syrup in 24 hours. There should be a gap of at least 4-6 hours between two doses. Do not take it for more than 3 days without first talking to your doctor. Based on the dose, more than 250 mg/kg can lead to toxicity and can be potentially fatal. An overdose is capable of causing serious damage to the liver and kidneys. Inform your doctor immediately if you think you have given too much of this medicine to your child, even if your child seems well, because of the risk of delayed, serious liver damage.
Is there any special diet my child needs to follow while taking this medicine?
Unless instructed by your doctor, your child should take a normal balanced diet while continuing this medicine as lack of nutrition can put your child at risk of developing medicinal toxicity.
In what conditions should Sanmol Syrup be given with caution?
It is advised to use Sanmol Syrup with caution if the child has malnutrition, G6PD deficiency, liver disease, or any medicinal allergy. So, do not hesitate to share your child’s complete medical history with the doctor as that will help the doctor decide whether the medicine is safe for your child or not.
How should I store this medicine?
Keep this medicine at room temperature in a dry place beyond the reach of children.
Can I give Sanmol Syrup on a routine basis when my child is taking a vaccine?
It is always suggested not to give this medicine with vaccines that lead to fever. Rendering to the studies, doing so can reduce the efficacy of the vaccine.
