AGROMYCIN 100MG (Azithromycin (100mg/5ml))

Agromycin 100mg Syrup is an antibiotic designed for the management of various bacterial infections commonly seen in children. It is effective against infections affecting the ears, eyes, nose, throat, lungs, skin, and digestive system. The active ingredient works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria responsible for these infections, thereby preventing their replication and helping to control the spread of the infection within the body. For optimal results, the syrup is typically administered once daily in the morning, but in cases such as typhoid fever, it may be prescribed to be taken twice daily. It can be given either with food or on an empty stomach, although administering it with food is advisable to minimize the risk of gastric upset, which can be more pronounced in children with sensitive stomachs. The dosage should be determined by the physician based on the specific infection, its severity, the child’s age, and body weight. Adhering strictly to the prescribed dosage and timing is essential. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes after taking the syrup, the same dose should be given again. Parents can expect noticeable improvement in their child’s condition within a couple of days; however, it is crucial to complete the entire course of treatment as prescribed to prevent any deterioration or risk of reinfection. Mild and temporary side effects may occur, such as nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and stomach discomfort, generally resolving as the body adjusts to the medication. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult the child’s healthcare provider promptly. Additionally, it is vital to inform the doctor of any prior medical conditions, including allergies, heart issues, liver problems, or kidney dysfunction, as this information is significant for appropriate dosing and overall treatment planning.
