OA Suspension

Give OA Suspension to your child orally, preferably at a fixed time, either before or after meals. In case your child develops stomach upset, prefer giving it with meals. The dose and duration depend on the type and severity of the infection, your child’s age, and body weight, so stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed by the doctor. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of intake, repeat the same dose, but do not double-dose if it's time for the next dose.

OA Suspension is generally safe when taken in the recommended dose. However, in some cases, minor and temporary side effects may be occur on taking this medicine. These include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, rash, and headache. Usually, these effects subside once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. However, in case of prolonged or bothersome events, it would be best to consult your child’s doctor without any delay.

Narrate your child’s complete medical history to your child’s doctor, including any previous episode of allergy, heart problems, liver impairment, and kidney malfunction. This information is critical for dose alterations and for planning your child’s overall treatment.

• Discontinue OA Suspension and inform the doctor immediately if your child develops a rash, itchy skin, swelling of face and mouth, or has difficulty in breathing.
