Wymox 125mg Dry Syrup

Overview of Your Child’s Medication
Wymox 125mg Dry Syrup is an antibiotic designed to treat a wide range of bacterial infections in children. It is effective against infections affecting the ears, eyes, nose, sinuses, tonsils, teeth, throat, lungs, skin, digestive system, and urinary tract. Additionally, it may help in managing peptic ulcer disease.

This medicine can be administered with or without food; however, giving it with food might reduce stomach upset. The usual dosing frequency is two to three times per day. It is important to follow the doctor’s instructions regarding dosage, timing, and method of administration, which depend on the severity of the infection, the type of bacteria involved, and your child’s age and weight. If your child vomits within half an hour of taking the syrup, you can repeat the dose once your child feels better. Avoid doubling up doses if the next dose is due soon.

Possible Side Effects
Wymox 125mg Dry Syrup may cause mild, temporary side effects such as nausea, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, or mild skin rashes. These symptoms usually improve on their own. If side effects persist or cause distress, contact your child’s healthcare provider promptly.

Before starting this medicine, inform the doctor if your child has any history of allergies, heart issues, blood disorders, congenital abnormalities, respiratory problems, gastrointestinal conditions, skin diseases, or kidney problems. This information helps the doctor tailor the treatment and adjust dosages as necessary.
