General Information





Your child’s medicine at a glance
Follow the prescribed dose, timing, and method when giving Mefanorm Suspension to your child. Give it orally, preferably after food, to reduce the chance of stomach upset. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking this medicine, give the same dose again. Do not give more than the recommended dose for faster relief, as this may cause unwanted side effects in your child.
Your child may exhibit side effects like nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, heartburn, and diarrhea after taking this medicine. These side effects are temporary and are likely to subside once your child's body adapts to the medicine. In case they persist or become bothersome for your child, do consult your child's doctor on a priority basis.
Before administering Mefanorm Suspension to your child, inform the doctor if your child is allergic to any medicine or products or has a history of any heart problems, birth defects, liver disease, kidney disease, lung disease, or bleeding disorder. This information is critical for dose alteration and helps in planning your child's overall treatment.
