Can the use of Vimcv Duo Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Vimcv Duo Dry Syrup can lead to diarrhea as it is an antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria. Additionally, this medication may disrupt beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach, causing diarrhea. If diarrhea occurs, encourage your child to consume fluids like water or other drinks. Seek medical advice if diarrhea persists and notice signs of dehydration, such as infrequent urination with dark-colored, strong-smelling urine. Do not administer any additional medications without consulting a healthcare professional.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most cases of viral common colds do not lead to bacterial infections. Antibiotics are generally unnecessary for viral-based illnesses. Consult your child's doctor before administering any medication if you experience symptoms such as fever, severe cough, or chest pain.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus during the common cold is not an indication that antibiotics are necessary. During a common cold, mucus thickens and changes color from clear to yellow or green. Most symptoms resolve within 7 to 10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences severe allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rashes), gastrointestinal issues such as diarrhea, or liver problems like weakness and vomiting. While rare, these signs are serious and require prompt medical attention.
