Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that treats bacterial infections in children and adolescents. Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that treats bacterial infections that may affect your child's eyes, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, bone and joints, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tract. It can also be used in treating typhoid fever in children and adolescents.
Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup contains two antibiotics. Cefixime works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) while ofloxacin directly interacts with the genetic material of bacteria. As a consequence, the infection-causing bacteria stop growing further and the spread of the infection is successfully arrested.
What happens if I accidentally give my child too much of Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup?
While an extra dose of Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup is unlikely to cause harm, it's essential to be vigilant as overdoses can lead to unwanted side effects and potentially worsen your child's condition. If you think your child has received too much medicine, consult with a doctor immediately.
Are there any serious potential side effects of Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup?
Some severe side effects associated with this medication include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergic reactions, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. If you suspect your child is experiencing these symptoms, seek medical attention promptly.
Can I give my child other medicines while they're taking Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup?
Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Inform your doctor about any other medications your child is currently taking before starting Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup, and consult with their pediatrician before administering any additional medication.
Can my child get vaccinated while on treatment with Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics like Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup generally don't interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions. However, children should not be vaccinated until they have fully recovered from their illness. Once your child is feeling better, the vaccine can be administered.
How might Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup affect my child's digestive system?
Children may experience stomach upset or diarrhea while taking antibiotics like Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup. This is because the medication can kill off beneficial bacteria, increasing the risk of developing other infections. If your child experiences diarrhea, do not stop their medication course. Instead, consult with their pediatrician for guidance on the next steps.
Can Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup lead to bacterial resistance in my child?
Yes, misuse or unrequired repeated use of Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup can contribute to the development of bacteria that are resistant to this medication. Resistant bacteria are no longer killed by antibiotics and may lead to reinfection.
What information should I provide to the doctor before giving my child Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup?
Inform your child's pediatrician about any underlying medical conditions, such as heart disease, genetic disorders involving blood vessels, seizures, psychiatric disorders, diabetes, photoallergy (sunlight allergy), neuromuscular disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis. This is because there is a possibility that Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup may exacerbate these conditions and lead to complications.
Give this medicine with food to avoid an upset stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid within 2 hours of taking Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup as these can affect the absorption of the medicine.
- Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again or become resistant or cause another infection.
- Do not give this medicine for common cold and flu as they are caused by viruses.
- Only give Biocefmix-O Dry Syrup to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses.
- Stop this medicine and immediately report to your child's doctor in case your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties while taking this medicine.
