General Information



Your child’s medicine at a glance
Use Triclocalm Syrup 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 Triclocalm Syrup remains active for several hours, your child may feel sleepy or less alert the following morning.
Triclocalm Syrup 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 Triclocalm Syrup. 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 Triclocalm Syrup, 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.

Quick tips
- Give Triclocalm Syrup to your child only before bedtime if it is prescribed for insomnia, or as advised by the doctor. If you forget to give it at bedtime, skip the missed dose. Do not give it at any other time of the day, as it may cause daytime drowsiness, dizziness, or confusion.
- This medicine may cause drowsiness or sleepiness. Ensure your child avoids activities that require concentration or coordination soon after taking Triclocalm Syrup.
- Never self-medicate your child. Use Triclocalm Syrup only on a doctor’s prescription and strictly for the duration recommended.
- Inform your child’s doctor if your child experiences vomiting, stomach upset, abdominal pain, or unusual tiredness while taking this medicine.
- Let the doctor know if your child has a history of heart, liver, or kidney problems, as the dose or suitability may need adjustment.
