Overview Sodoxim 100 Dry Syrup

Its applications span ear, eye, nose, throat, lung, skin, digestive, and urinary tract infections, including typhoid fever.

Provide your child's doctor with a complete medical history, including allergies, heart conditions, blood disorders, congenital defects, respiratory issues, lung abnormalities, gastrointestinal problems, skin conditions, liver or kidney problems.
