Spasmic Kid Syrup

Quick info

Spasmic Kid Syrup is commonly given to treat stomach pain, bloating, and abdominal cramps, and pain associated with excessive acidity, gas, infections, and gastrointestinal tract diseases. Give the prescribed dose of Spasmic Kid Syrup to your child orally before a meal or as suggested by the doctor. Your child's doctor may prescribe this medicine for a few days to many days. But do not continue it for more than 2 weeks without consulting the doctor as excessive and long-term use may have adverse effects on your child. Additionally, do not abruptly stop the medicine by yourself as it may bring back the symptoms or worsen your child's condition.

How it works

Spasmic Kid Syrup is a mixture of two active medicines Dicyclomine, an antispasmodic agent, and Simethicone, an antifoaming medicine. Dicyclomine works by relaxing the muscles in your stomach and gut (intestine). It stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms) thereby relieving abdominal cramps and pain. Whereas Simethicone disintegrates gas bubbles and allows easy passage of gas.

Direction of use

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Spasmic Kid Syrup is to be taken with food.

Tips

• Inform your doctor if you experience severe or long-lasting pain in your stomach.
• Give your child a diet that is rich in fiber and low in fermentable sugars.
• Avoid giving gas-producing foods to your child such as beans, onions, carrots, raisins, and bananas.
• Encourage your child to exercise daily as it has potential benefits in constipation and in improving overall wellbeing.
• In children less than 2 months of age, do not give Spasmic Kid Syrup without ruling out the reasons that might be making your child cry. Give Spasmic Kid Syrup only if your child shows actual signs of abdominal discomfort or pain after consulting your child's doctor.
