How can I give Metopar Suspension to my child?

How Metopar Suspension works
Metopar Suspension contains two medicines: Metoclopramide and Paracetamol. Metoclopramide is an antiemetic that works on the vomiting center in the brain. It also increases the movement of the stomach and intestines, allowing food to move more easily through the stomach. This prevents nausea and vomiting caused due to migraines. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and an antipyretic (fever reducer) which blocks the release of certain chemical messengers that cause the pain associated with migraine.

FAQs
Q. My child is an athlete and has to participate in a sports event at school. Can I give Metopar Suspension before his performance?

Q. What are the serious side effects of Metopar Suspension?
Metopar Suspension can take entry in the brain and can cause serious side effects in your child. These effects may include muscle spasms (especially of the head, face, and neck), trembling and shaking of the hands, jerky movements of arms, legs, or eyes. It can also cause changes in mood or behavior and hormonal disturbances in your child.
Q. Who should not take Metopar Suspension?

Always, consult your child’s doctor before giving Metopar Suspension in such cases.
Q. What if I give an excess of Metopar Suspension to my child by mistake?
Excess intake of Metopar Suspension is dangerous as it contains paracetamol which can cause serious liver damage (hepatotoxicity) and CNS side effects.

Keep this medicine at room temperature in a dry place beyond the reach of the children.
