Introduction

Give Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango 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. Generally, this medicine is prescribed to be given two times a day, in the morning and evening. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of intake, repeat the same dose but do not double the dose if it is time for the next dose. Never change the dose, time, and way prescribed by the doctor since these depend upon the type and severity of the infection, your child's age, and body weight.

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. Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango is a combination of three active ingredients. While two of its ingredients, namely ofloxacin and metronidazole are antibiotics, simethicone is a gas-absorbing agent that improves gastric tolerability of the combination. The antibiotic ingredients interfere with the genetic material of bacteria by impairing its DNA. This kills the infection-causing bacteria, preventing its growth and stopping the infection. On the other hand, Simethicone binds with the gas bubbles produced as a result of the other two ingredients or as a result of some other problem. By doing so, it aids in the removal of gases and provides relief in stomach pain and bloating.

Diarrhea is a common side effect of this medicine. If it occurs, make sure your child drinks plenty of water. Your child may have an altered taste or furry tongue (coating of Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango on tongue) after taking Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help. Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid within 2 hours of taking Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango as these can affect the absorption of the medicine. Never use this medicine for the common cold and flu as they are caused by viruses and Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango treats only bacterial infections. Discontinue Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango 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 Siliwud MZ Syrup Mango to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses.
