Kidoslip Drop
Prescription RequiredProduct introduction
Kidoslip Drop is a medicine belonging to the group of sedatives and hypnotics. It is used in children to provide sedation (a calming or sleep-inducing effect) before medical or diagnostic procedures. It helps calm the child by slowing down brain activity, making it easier for them to relax or sleep.
Use Kidoslip Drop only as directed by your child’s doctor. It is usually given before bedtime or before a medical or diagnostic procedure to help your child relax or fall asleep. The dose and timing will be decided by the doctor based on your child’s age, weight, and medical condition. As Kidoslip Drop remains active for several hours, your child may feel sleepy or less alert the following morning.
Kidoslip Drop is intended for short-term use under medical supervision. It should not be used regularly to make a child sleep or stay calm under normal circumstances. Prolonged or excessive use may lead to dependence or reduced effectiveness over time. Do not stop the medicine suddenly without medical advice, as this may cause withdrawal symptoms.
Some children may experience mild side effects such as drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, or unsteady movement after taking Kidoslip Drop. These effects are usually temporary and subside as the body adjusts. However, if these symptoms persist, worsen, or cause discomfort, consult your child’s doctor promptly.
Before starting Kidoslip Drop, inform your child’s doctor about any history of allergies, liver, kidney, or heart problems, or any previous reaction to sedative medicines. This helps ensure safe and effective treatment tailored to your child’s needs.
