Puredoxim 50mg Syrup is an antibiotic medicine commonly given to children for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial infections. It is effective in treating infections targeting the ears, eyes, nose, throat, lungs, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tract. It is also used to treat typhoid fever in children and adolescents.
Puredoxim 50mg Syrup is an antibiotic that works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) which is essential for the survival of the bacteria. This medicine stops the infection-causing bacteria from growing further and prevents the infection from spreading without making the bacteria resistant to further treatment.
What if I give too much of Puredoxim 50mg Syrup accidentally?
An extra dose of Puredoxim 50mg Syrup is unlikely to cause harm. However, if you think you have given your child too much Puredoxim 50mg Syrup, please contact a doctor immediately. Overdose may lead to unwanted side effects and might worsen their condition.
Are there any possible serious side effects of Puredoxim 50mg Syrup?
Some serious side effects associated with this medication include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergies, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. Always consult your child's doctor for help in such situations.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Puredoxim 50mg Syrup?
Puredoxim 50mg Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Before starting Puredoxim 50mg Syrup, it's important to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking and consult them before administering any medication.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Puredoxim 50mg Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children recently vaccinated. However, it's crucial to wait for the illness to clear before administering a vaccine. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while on long-term treatment with Puredoxim 50mg Syrup?
Your child's doctor might recommend regular kidney function and liver function tests to monitor their condition during long-term use.
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 need for antibiotics. During a common cold, it's normal for mucus to thicken and change color from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms usually last 7-10 days.
My child has a sore throat and ear infection. Can I give them antibiotics?
No. More than 80% of sore throats and ear infections are caused by viruses, and antibiotics don't treat viral infections. If your child experiences a sore throat, runny nose, a barky cough, pain, and discharge from the ear, it likely stems from a virus. Consult your child's doctor for guidance.
Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When should I start antibiotics to prevent infection?
In most cases, bacterial infections don't follow viral infections. Using antibiotics to treat viral infections may lead to side effects without actually benefiting your child's health. Consult your child's doctor for guidance before starting antibiotics.
Can Puredoxim 50mg Syrup impact my child’s digestive system?
Children often have a sensitive stomach, and they may experience stomach upset while taking antibiotics. During this process, the good bacteria in their gut might be impacted as well. Puredoxim 50mg Syrup can potentially kill off both the bad and the good bacteria in the gut, increasing the risk of developing other infections. If your child experiences diarrhea while on Puredoxim 50mg Syrup, don't stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor first. Instead, call your child's doctor to find out the best course of action for their situation. In some cases, the doctor may alter the dosage.
Can Puredoxim 50mg Syrup lead to bacterial resistance in my child?
Yes, irregular use, repeated use, and misuse of Puredoxim 50mg Syrup can contribute to the development of antibiotic resistance. Resistant bacteria are no longer affected by antibiotics and may result in reinfection.
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.
