Introduction
Stopvom Suspension is used to treat indigestion, gastroesophageal reflux disease, nausea, and vomiting in children. It increases the movement of food through the stomach and intestines, thereby relieving bloating, fullness, and gastric discomfort. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and duration as advised by the doctor. While it is generally well-tolerated, some children may experience dry mouth as a side effect. It is crucial not to mix this medication with any herbal or ayurvedic medicines as they can cause harm. Always consult a doctor before making any changes to the medication regimen.
Directions for Use
Stopvom Suspension should be taken before meals as per the dose and duration prescribed by the doctor. Do not mix with any herbal or ayurvedic medicines.
How it works
Stopvom Suspension is a prokinetic. It works on the region in the brain that controls vomiting and acts on the upper digestive tract to increase the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily through the stomach.
Quick Tips
Take before meals as prescribed by the doctor. Dry mouth may occur; frequent mouth rinses, good oral hygiene, increased water intake, and sugarless candy may help. Can be given along with fever medicines unless advised otherwise by the doctor. Do not mix with any herbal or ayurvedic medicines. Do not save medicines to treat future symptoms. If unsure about the medicine's effectiveness, consult the doctor before stopping it abruptly.
