Uses
- Treatment of Bacterial Infections
Benefits
AB-Cef Dry Syrup functions by eliminating bacteria responsible for infections in the body. It is particularly effective against bacterial infections of the lungs, throat, and urinary tract, among others. Children typically start feeling better within a few days, but it is essential to continue the full course of medication as prescribed, even if symptoms improve. Stopping the medication early may lead to a recurrence of the infection and make it more challenging to treat.
How to Use
For optimal absorption, administer AB-Cef Dry Syrup one hour before or two hours after meals. If your child experiences a stomach upset, it can be given with food. Adhere strictly to the prescribed dose and schedule. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking the syrup, you may administer the same dose again; however, do not give a double dose if the next scheduled dose is due.
Side Effects
While AB-Cef Dry Syrup is generally well-tolerated and does not cause severe side effects, some minor, temporary side effects may occur, including:
- Abdominal pain
- Nausea
- Stomach pain
- Indigestion
- Diarrhea
- Flatulence
- Allergy
These side effects typically resolve as your child’s body adjusts to the medication. If they persist or become bothersome, consult your child’s doctor promptly.
Precautions
Provide your child’s complete medical history to the healthcare provider, including any history of allergies, heart conditions, blood disorders, birth defects, airway obstructions, lung anomalies, gastrointestinal issues, skin disorders, liver dysfunction, and kidney problems. This information is crucial for determining appropriate dosing and treatment planning.
