YOUR CHILD’S MEDICINE AT A GLANCE
Aristogyl Suspension is a medicine that has antibiotic and antiparasitic properties. It is given to children for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial and parasitic infections. It may also be given in combination therapy for the treatment of peptic ulcer disease.
Give Aristogyl Suspension to your child orally, with food, preferably at a fixed time. Giving it with food helps prevent the risk of developing a stomach upset. The usually prescribed frequency is three times a day, once each in the morning, afternoon, and at bedtime, keeping a gap of 6 hours between two doses. Always give the dose as prescribed by the doctor since they depend on the severity and type of infection, body weight, and age of your child. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of intake, repeat the same dose but never double up the dose if it is time for the next dose.
Some children may develop minor and temporary side effects after taking this medicine. These include nausea, vomiting, metallic taste, headache, loss of appetite, abdominal cramps, red-brown urine, and mild skin rash. These side effects usually go away once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. However, in case they persist for long or start bothering your child, you must consult your child’s doctor without any delay.
Your child’s doctor must be aware if your child has ever had any previous episode of allergy, heart problem, blood disorder, liver impairment, and kidney malfunction. This will guide the doctor in planning your child’s overall treatment.
