PODOJIYO-100

Detailed Description

PODOJIYO-100 Dry Syrup is an antibiotic formulation commonly prescribed for children to manage different types of bacterial infections involving the ears, eyes, nose, throat, lungs, skin, digestive system, and urinary tract. It may also be used in certain cases of typhoid fever in children and teenagers.

This medicine should be given exactly as advised by the doctor. It is generally recommended to administer it with food to reduce stomach discomfort and improve tolerance. The dosage depends on your child’s age, weight, severity of infection, and medical condition. If your child vomits within 30 minutes after taking the medicine, the same dose may be repeated unless it is nearly time for the next scheduled dose.

PODOJIYO-100 Dry Syrup is effective only against bacterial infections and should not be used for viral illnesses such as common cold or flu unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Some children may experience mild side effects such as loose stools, nausea, stomach pain, skin rash, or headache. These effects are usually temporary and often improve as the body adjusts to the medicine. If any symptom continues or worsens, medical advice should be taken promptly.

Before starting treatment, inform the doctor about your child’s medical history, including any allergies, kidney or liver problems, gastrointestinal issues, heart conditions, or previous reactions to antibiotics. This helps the doctor decide the most suitable dose and treatment plan.
