Your child’s medicine at a glance
Taxim-O
Dry Syrup Delicious Pineapple is an antibiotic medicine. It is commonly
given to children to treat a wide range of bacterial infections
targeting the ear, eyes, nose, throat, lungs, skin, gastrointestinal
tract, and urinary tract. It can also be used in treating uncomplicated
typhoid fever in children and adolescents.
Taxim-O Dry Syrup
Delicious Pineapple is best given an hour before or two hours after
meals as that ensures better absorption. In case your child develops a
stomach upset, prefer giving it with meals. The dose and duration depend
upon the type and severity of the infection, so stick to the dose,
time, and way prescribed by the doctor. If your child vomits within 30
minutes of the intake, give the same dose again but do not double dose
if it's the time for the next dose.
Do not give this medicine to
your child in case of cold and flu symptoms as they are usually caused
by viruses, and antibiotics don’t treat viral infections. Doctors
prescribe this medicine for cough and cold only when they detect any
underlying secondary bacterial infection.
This medicine may have
some minor and temporary side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea,
nausea, abdominal pain, and allergy. Usually, these episodes subside
once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. However, if these side
effects persist or become bothersome for your child, report to the
doctor without any delay.
Narrate your child’s complete medical
history to your child’s doctor, including any previous episode of
allergy, heart problem, blood disorder, birth defects, airway
obstruction, lung anomaly, gastrointestinal problem, skin disorder,
liver impairment, and kidney malfunction. This information is critical
for dose alterations and for planning your child’s overall treatment.
