Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Svclav Dry Syrup?
Svclav Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Before starting treatment, inform your child's doctor about all medications they are taking. It is crucial to seek guidance from your child's healthcare provider regarding any new medicine use.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Svclav Dry Syrup?
In general, antibiotics do not interfere with vaccine ingredients and do not cause adverse reactions in children. However, it's essential to avoid giving your child a vaccine before they recover from the underlying illness. If your child feels better after their symptoms subside, then the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Svclav Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Prolonged treatment might require periodic monitoring of kidney and liver function. This is done for your child’s well-being. Please discuss this with your doctor.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Svclav Dry Syrup to my child?
It's essential not to exceed the recommended dosage for Svclav Dry Syrup. Excessive dosages increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, reach out to their doctor for further evaluation.
Can I stop giving Svclav Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not discontinue Svclav Dry Syrup treatment without consulting a medical professional until the entire course is completed. Even if your child feels better, it's important to continue the medication as it may still provide beneficial effects. This ensures complete eradication of the infection.
Can the use of Svclav Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Svclav Dry Syrup can lead to diarrhea. Antibiotics often disrupt the balance of bacteria in the digestive system. In addition to causing diarrhea, this medication might also impact your child's gut flora. Encourage your child to drink fluids regularly if they experience diarrhea. If diarrhea persists and you notice signs like less frequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, contact your child’s doctor immediately before administering any other medicine.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral infections don't lead to bacterial infections. Antibiotics are only necessary after consulting with a medical professional if there is an accompanying bacterial infection.
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 doesn't indicate a bacterial infection in itself. However, during a common cold, this can change color and thicken. Symptoms often last for 7 to 10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
In case of serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting), seek immediate medical attention. Though rare, these side effects demand urgent medical evaluation.
