Overview Metola S Syrup

Pedialyte S Syrup combats bacterial infections affecting a child's teeth, lungs, digestive system, urinary tract, and reproductive organs. It's also used to treat bloody diarrhea and severe infections such as peritonitis. Administer Pedialyte S 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 typical dosage is twice daily, morning and evening. If your child vomits within half an hour, repeat the dose; however, avoid doubling the dose if it's nearing the next scheduled time. Strictly adhere to your doctor's prescribed dosage, timing, and method, as these are tailored to the infection's type and severity, your child's age, and weight. Minor, transient side effects like nausea, vomiting, weight loss, a metallic taste, headache, appetite loss, abdominal discomfort, and a mild rash are possible. These usually subside. However, if side effects persist or worry you, contact your pediatrician immediately. Always inform your doctor of your child's complete medical history, including any allergies, heart conditions, liver problems, or kidney issues. This is vital for accurate dosing and treatment planning.

How Metola S Syrup works:

Metola S Syrup unites three active components to treat infections and associated digestive discomfort. Ofloxacin and metronidazole, both antibiotics, target bacterial DNA, halting bacterial growth and eliminating infection.
