Wikifix 50mg Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medication commonly prescribed to children for the treatment of various bacterial infections affecting different parts of the body including the ear, eyes, nose, throat, lungs, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tract. It can also be used to treat uncomplicated typhoid fever in children and adolescents.

For optimal effectiveness, it is recommended to administer Wikifix 50mg Dry Syrup one hour before or two hours after meals as this helps in better absorption. However, if your child experiences stomach upset, it is advised to give the medicine with meals. The dosage and duration of treatment should strictly adhere to the guidelines provided by the doctor, as they are tailored to the specific type and severity of the infection. In case of vomiting within 30 minutes of intake, the same dose can be readministered, but doubling the dose should be avoided if it's close to the next scheduled dose.

It is important to note that Wikifix 50mg Dry Syrup should not be given for cold and flu symptoms as these are typically caused by viruses which are not treated with antibiotics. Antibiotics are only prescribed for cough and cold when a secondary bacterial infection is detected by the doctor.

While Wikifix 50mg Dry Syrup is generally well-tolerated, it may lead to some minor and temporary side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and allergy. These side effects typically subside as the child’s body adjusts to the medication, but if they persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult the doctor promptly.

When consulting the doctor about your child's medical history, it is crucial to provide a comprehensive overview including any previous allergies, heart issues, blood disorders, birth defects, airway obstructions, lung anomalies, gastrointestinal problems, skin disorders, liver impairments, and kidney malfunctions. This detailed information aids the doctor in making necessary dose adjustments and developing an appropriate treatment plan for your child.
