Product introduction

Azilimb Suspension works by inhibiting the growth of the infection-causing bacteria and stopping it from multiplying. As a result of this, the spread of the infection is disabled. Azilimb Suspension is usually given once a day, preferably in the morning. However, in the case of typhoid, it is to be given twice. Give it with or without food at about the same time each day. However, it is best given with food since children often have a sensitive stomach and could easily get a stomach upset.

Medicine dose depends on the type of infection your child has, its severity, and your child’s age and body weight. So stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed by the doctor. In case your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking this medicine, give the same dose again.

Your child may start to feel better within 2 days of regular dosing. However, you must still complete the full prescribed course of the medicine and never stop it abruptly as that may worsen your child’s condition or increase the risk of reinfection. Some of the minor and temporary side effects of this medicine include vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, and stomach pain. Usually, these episodes subside once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. However, in case these effects persist or become bothersome for your child, consult your child’s doctor without any delay.

Inform your child’s doctor about any previous episode of any allergy, heart problem, liver impairment, and kidney malfunction. Knowing the child’s medical history is critical for dose alterations and for planning your child’s overall treatment.

Frequently asked questions

What if I give too much of Azilimb Suspension by mistake?

Azilimb Suspension is unlikely to cause any harm if an extra dose is given by mistake. However, if you think you have given too much of Azilimb Suspension to your child, immediately speak to a doctor. Overdose may cause unwanted side effects and may even worsen your child’s condition.

Are there any possible serious side effects of Azilimb Suspension?

Some serious side effects of this medicine include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergy, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. Always consult your child’s doctor for help in such a situation.

Can other medicines be given at the same time as Azilimb Suspension?

Azilimb Suspension can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Azilimb Suspension. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.

Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Azilimb Suspension?

Antibiotics usually do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a bad reaction in a child who has just been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not get vaccinated until they recover from the illness. As soon as your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.

Which all lab tests should my child undergo while taking Azilimb Suspension on a long term basis?

The doctor may prescribe getting kidney function tests and liver function tests periodically to keep a check on your child’s condition.

Can Azilimb Suspension impact my child’s digestion?

Children often have a sensitive stomach and develop a stomach upset while taking medicines. When antibiotics are given, the good bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract may too get affected. Azilimb Suspension may kill off good bacteria along with the bad ones, increasing your child’s risk of developing other infections. So, in case your child is having diarrhea while on Azilimb Suspension, do not stop the medicine course. Instead, call your child’s doctor to ask the next steps. In some cases, the doctor may alter the dose.

Is Azilimb Suspension safe?

Azilimb Suspension is safe if used at prescribed doses for the prescribed duration as advised by your doctor.

What if I don't get better?

You should inform your doctor if you do not notice any improvement in your symptoms after 3 days of taking Azilimb Suspension. Also, if your symptoms get worse, inform your doctor immediately.

Can the use of Azilimb Suspension cause diarrhea?

Yes, the use of Azilimb Suspension can cause diarrhea. It is an antibiotic which kills the harmful bacteria. However, it also affects the helpful bacteria in your stomach or intestine and causes diarrhea. If you are experiencing severe diarrhea, talk to your doctor about it.

Can Azilimb Suspension be taken at night?

Azilimb Suspension is usually prescribed once daily. You can take it at any time of the day, but remember to take it at the same time each day. The medicine should be taken 1 hour before meals or 2 hours after eating food. You can take the tablet preparation with or without food. However, you must take Azilimb Suspension exactly as advised by your doctor and ask your doctor if you have any doubts.

How long does Azilimb Suspension takes to work?

Usually, Azilimb Suspension starts working soon after taking it. However, it may take some days to kill all the harmful bacteria and make you feel better.

Why is Azilimb Suspension given for 3 days?

The duration of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated and the age of the patient. Azilimb Suspension is not necessarily given for 3 days. In most bacterial infections, a single dose of 500 mg is given for 3 days. Alternatively, it can be given as 500 mg once on day 1 and then 250 mg once from day 2 to day 5. In some cases of infection such as genital ulcer disease, it is given as a single 1 gram dose. Therefore, you must stick to the regimen advised by your doctor.

What should I avoid while taking Azilimb Suspension?

Generally, it is recommended that patients taking Azilimb Suspension should avoid taking any antacid with this medicine as this can affect the overall effectiveness of Azilimb Suspension. It is also recommended to avoid exposure to sunlight or tanning beds as Azilimb Suspension increases the risk of sunburn.

Is Azilimb Suspension a strong antibiotic?

Azilimb Suspension is an effective antibiotic that is used for the treatment of many bacterial infections. Compared to other antibiotics, Azilimb Suspension has a longer half-life which means that it stays in the body for a long time because of which it is given once a day and for a short span of time. Other antibiotics comparatively have a shorter half-life and are usually given twice, thrice, or four times a day.

Can you get a yeast infection from taking Azilimb Suspension?

Some people may get a fungal or yeast infection known as thrush after taking Azilimb Suspension.
