Never use this medicine for the common cold and flu as they are caused by viruses and Unin MS Syrup treats only bacterial infections. Discontinue Unin MS Syrup 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 Unin MS Syrup to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses.

This is because Unin MS Syrup may exacerbate these conditions and lead to complications.

Why might my child not show improvement after taking Unin MS Syrup for the prescribed duration?
