Overview Altoxin MS Syrup

PediaSolve Syrup is an oral antibiotic prescribed for children to combat bacterial infections affecting the teeth, lungs, digestive system, urinary tract, and reproductive organs. It's also used empirically to treat bloody diarrhea and severe infections such as peritonitis. Administer PediaSolve Syrup orally to your child, ideally at the same time each day, either before or after meals; if stomach upset occurs, give it with food. The usual dosage is twice daily, morning and evening. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes, repeat the dose; however, do not exceed the prescribed amount. Always adhere to the doctor's instructions regarding dosage, timing, and administration, as these are tailored to the infection's severity, your child's age, and weight. Minor, transient side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, weight loss, metallic taste, headache, appetite changes, abdominal discomfort, and mild rash, may occur. These typically subside with continued use. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant immediate consultation with your pediatrician. Provide a complete medical history to your doctor, including any allergies, heart conditions, liver problems, or kidney issues, to ensure safe and effective treatment.

How Altoxin MS Syrup works:

Altoxin MS Syrup unites three active components to address gastrointestinal infections. Ofloxacin and metronidazole, both antibiotics, target bacterial DNA, halting bacterial replication and eliminating infection. Simethicone, a separate anti-flatulent, mitigates gas buildup, a potential side effect of the antibiotics or an independent issue. This gas-absorbing action enhances the syrup's tolerability by alleviating associated abdominal discomfort and bloating.
