Orntin Duo Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. Orntin Duo Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. It is capable of killing bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies and thus also helps treat tuberculosis that is resistant to other treatments. You can give Orntin Duo Dry Syrup to your child with or without food. It is better to give it with food as that helps increase absorption and decrease the risk of stomach upset. The doctor may prescribe giving it two to three times a day. Medicine dose depends on the severity of the infection, its type, and your child’s body weight and age. So, stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed. If your child vomits the medicine within 30 minutes of intake, let the child calm down and repeat the dose. Do not double dose if it's the time for the next dose.
Orntin Duo Dry Syrup is an antibiotic. It has two active agents, amoxycillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxycillin works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) essential for the survival of the bacteria. Whereas, clavulanic acid serves a special purpose of inhibiting an enzyme (beta-lactamase) that is produced by resistant bacteria. This makes the combination of amoxycillin and clavulanic acid an effective line of treatment for many types of infections.
Can other medications be given at the same time as Orntin Duo Dry Syrup?
It's essential to inform your doctor about any other medications your child is taking before starting Orntin Duo Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with their doctor before giving any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Orntin Duo Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics typically do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have been vaccinated. However, it's recommended to delay vaccination until the child has recovered from their illness.
Which lab tests may be required for my child while taking Orntin Duo Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Prolonged therapy may necessitate periodic monitoring of kidney and liver function tests to ensure your child's condition remains stable.
Can I give a higher dose of Orntin Duo Dry Syrup than recommended to my child?
No, administering a higher dose can increase the risk of side effects. If symptoms worsen, consult with your doctor for re-evaluation.
Should I stop giving Orntin Duo Dry Syrup to my child when their symptoms are relieved?
Continue giving the medication as prescribed, even if symptoms improve before completing the full treatment course. This ensures the infection is fully cured and any beneficial effects of the medicine can take hold.
Can the use of Orntin Duo Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, this antibiotic may cause diarrhea due to its effect on harmful bacteria in the child's stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea, and consult with a doctor if symptoms persist or signs of dehydration appear.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infections?
Mostly, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics for viral infections can increase the risk of side effects, so it's essential to consult with your child's doctor before administering these medications.
Does yellow-green mucus coming out of my child's nose signify a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose is common during a cold and does not necessarily require antibiotics. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days, so it's crucial to wait and observe before administering medication.
Is there any sign that indicates my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences severe allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects are rare but serious and require prompt attention.
