Your child’s medicine at a glance

P 250 Suspension is given orally, preferably at a fixed time every day. Though this medicine can be taken with or without food, it is best given after food, as P 250 Suspension can irritate the inner lining of an empty stomach. The dose and duration will depend upon your child’s age, body weight, and severity of the infection, so stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed by your child’s doctor. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking the medicine, let the child calm down and repeat the same dose. Redosing is not recommended if your child experiences any allergic reaction within 30 minutes after taking a dose.

Do not give your child P 250 Suspension along with other medicines (many cold and flu medicines and other painkillers) that contain paracetamol, as this may result in overdosing and cause dangerous side effects such as hepatotoxicity (liver damage). Always check the ingredients of any other medicines before giving them to your child in combination with this medicine.

Generally, P 250 Suspension is well-tolerated by the children. However, temporary side effects such as indigestion, nausea, and vomiting may occur in some children. Consult your doctor in case these episodes become bothersome for your child.

P 250 Suspension is often considered safe and effective, but may not be suitable for everybody. Inform your doctor if your child is undergoing treatment for any blood-related disorder, is allergic to any medicinal compound, or has any birth defects, liver impairment, or kidney dysfunction. This will help your child’s doctor evaluate the dose and suitability of this medicine in a better way.

Uses of P 250 Suspension in children

Benefits of P 250 Suspension for your child

Pain relief
P 250 Suspension is a common painkiller used to treat aches and pains. It works by blocking chemical messengers in the brain that tell us we have pain. It is effective in relieving pain caused by headache, migraine, nerve pain, toothache, sore throat, period (menstrual) pains, arthritis, and muscle aches. This medicine is very widely used and very rarely causes side effects if taken at the right dosage. Take it as it is prescribed to get the most benefit. Do not take more or for longer than needed as that can be dangerous. In general, you should take the lowest dose that works, for the shortest possible time. It is also the first choice of painkiller during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Treatment of Fever
P 250 Suspension is also used to reduce a high temperature (fever). It works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause fever. It may be prescribed alone or in combination with another medicine. You should take it regularly as advised by your doctor.

Side effects of P 250 Suspension in children

P 250 Suspension does not pose serious side effects and is well-tolerated by children. In case the side effects do occur, they’re likely to subside once the body adapts to the medicine. Consult your child’s doctor if these side effects persist or bother your child. The most common side effects include-

Common side effects of P

Indigestion
Vomiting
Stomach pain
Nausea

How can I give P 250 Suspension to my child?

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. P 250 Suspension may be taken with or without food.

How P Suspension works

P 250 Suspension works as a pain reliever (analgesic) and fever reducer (antipyretic) by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the brain called prostaglandins. These chemicals are involved in causing pain and fever, so by reducing their levels, P 250 Suspension helps ease pain and discomfort and lowers body temperature.

Frequently asked questions

How much P 250 Suspension should I give to my child?

Always follow your doctor's instructions regarding how much of the medicine to give and how often to give it. This depends on the strength of the medicine and the age of your child. You may also check the label or the leaflet inside the packaging for directions before use.

When will my child’s condition improve after taking P 250 Suspension?

P 250 Suspension usually starts working within 30 to 60 minutes of intake and shows its peak effect within 3 to 4 hours. Your child may start to feel better after a few doses. In case the pain or fever persists longer, consult your child’s doctor immediately.

Can I give P 250 Suspension to my child for low-grade fever?

You can give this medicine if your child has a temperature of 38.3°C (101°F) or higher. But you must always try to speak to your child’s doctor first.

My child’s fever is persistent even after taking P 250 Suspension. What should I do?

If the fever doesn't come down after the initial few doses, the cause might be an infection (virus or bacteria). It is advised to consult your child’s doctor for specific treatment.

How much of P 250 Suspension is considered as an overdose?

Unless instructed by your doctor, your child should take a normal, balanced diet while continuing this medicine, as a lack of nutrition can put your child at risk of developing medication toxicity.

Where should I store this medicine?

In what conditions P 250 Suspension must be given with caution?

It is advised to use P 250 Suspension with caution if the child has malnutrition, G6PD deficiency, liver disease, or any medical allergy. So, do not hesitate to share your child’s complete medical history with the doctor, as that will help the doctor decide whether the medicine is safe for your child or not.

Can I give P 250 Suspension on a routine basis when my child is taking a vaccine?

P 250 Suspension usually does not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a bad reaction in a child who has just been vaccinated. However, it is best if you let your child recover from the ongoing illness and finish the course of the medicine. As soon as your child feels better, the vaccine can and should be given.
