Overview Bactomet 150mg/100mg Suspension

Pediotic 150mg/100mg oral suspension is a broad-spectrum antibiotic combating various bacterial and parasitic infections. In pediatric patients, it's indicated for urinary and gastrointestinal tract infections. Administer Pediotic 150mg/100mg Suspension orally with food, ideally at the same time daily. Concomitant food intake minimizes stomach upset. Dosage, determined by your child's doctor based on infection severity, weight, and age, must be strictly followed. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes, repeat the dose; however, avoid doubling the dose if nearing the next scheduled administration. Mild, transient side effects—including nausea, vomiting, metallic taste, headache, anorexia, abdominal discomfort, reddish-brown urine, and mild rash—may occur. These typically resolve with continued use. Persistent or bothersome side effects warrant immediate consultation with your child's physician. Prior allergies, cardiac conditions, hematological disorders, hepatic impairment, and renal dysfunction should be disclosed to your child's doctor to optimize treatment planning.
