Overview Kanset Syrup

PediaCalm syrup effectively manages nausea and vomiting in children. Its primary use is for nausea and vomiting related to surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and gastrointestinal infections. It also counteracts vomiting induced by medications like analgesics. PediaCalm may be administered before or after meals. For chemotherapy-related vomiting, give it 30 minutes beforehand; for radiotherapy, 1-2 hours prior; and for surgery, 1 hour beforehand to prevent post-procedure vomiting. If your child vomits within 30 minutes, reassure them and repeat the dose; however, avoid doubling the dose if it's nearing the next scheduled time. Minor, temporary side effects like headache, constipation, diarrhea, and tiredness may occur, typically resolving as your child adjusts. If these persist or worsen, consult your doctor immediately. Always inform your doctor of all your child's medications, including pain relievers, antibiotics, and antidepressants. Disclose any history of liver or kidney issues, gastrointestinal obstructions, heart conditions, or allergies to medications, ingredients, or foods; this is crucial for appropriate dosage and treatment planning.

How Kanset Syrup works:

Before procedures like radiotherapy, chemotherapy, abdominal surgery, or other major operations, dying cells release serotonin into the bloodstream.

Administering Kanset Syrup beforehand counteracts serotonin's action on the brain's emetic centers, thus preventing nausea and vomiting.
