Overview Zociof MS Oral Suspension

Pediazole oral suspension treats bacterial infections in children affecting the teeth, lungs, digestive system, urinary tract, and reproductive organs. It's also used empirically for bloody diarrhea and severe infections such as peritonitis. Administer Pediazole orally to your child, ideally at the same time each day, with or without food. If stomach upset occurs, give it with food. The usual dosage is twice daily, morning and evening. If vomiting happens within 30 minutes, repeat the dose; however, do not double the dose if it's nearly time for the next one. Never adjust the dosage, timing, or method without your doctor's instruction, as these factors depend on infection severity, your child's age, and weight. Minor, temporary side effects like nausea, vomiting, weight loss, metallic taste, headache, appetite loss, abdominal pain, and mild rash may occur, usually subsiding with continued use. Contact your doctor immediately if side effects persist or worsen. Always provide your child's complete medical history, including allergies, heart conditions, liver problems, and kidney issues, for accurate dosage and treatment planning.

How Zociof MS Oral Suspension works:

Zociof MS Oral Suspension unites three active components to combat infection and alleviate gastrointestinal discomfort. Ofloxacin and metronidazole, both antibiotics, target bacterial DNA, halting bacterial replication and eliminating infection. Simethicone, a gas-binding agent, counters gas buildup—whether a consequence of the antibiotics or other sources—thus reducing bloating and stomach pain. This synergistic action provides both antimicrobial and gas-relief benefits.
