Tritone Drop is used in children to stimulate appetite and encourage better food intake. It is often prescribed for those struggling with poor appetite and inadequate weight gain. While it does not directly provide nutrition, it helps improve eating habits, which can support overall growth.

Give Tritone Drop to your child by mouth before food in the dose, time, and way prescribed by your child’s doctor. Give this medicine at a fixed time so that it gradually becomes a part of your child’s daily routine. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking this medicine, help the child calm down and repeat the dose. For maximum benefit, it is advised to continue the treatment for the prescribed duration.

The intake of Tritone Drop may cause minor and temporary side effects in your child, such as dizziness, confusion, dry mouth, and blurred vision. These symptoms will resolve once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. However, it would be best to consult your child’s doctor immediately in case of prolonged or bothersome events.

Inform your child’s doctor if your child is on any medical regimen or is allergic to any medicine, product, or food. The doctor must also be aware if your child has had bowel obstruction, malnutrition, weight-related issues, thyroid problems, or any heart, liver, or kidney problems. All this information will help avoid any complications in the treatment and will help your child’s doctor plan and make your child’s overall treatment better.

How Tritone Oral Drops works

Tricholine citrate also helps increase appetite and spares amino acids for muscle enhancement.

My child is having a long-term illness and is on medication. He is underweight with poor nutritional status and does not feel like eating anything. Can I give Tritone Drop?

Loss of appetite is a common side effect of some medicines. If given, Tritone Drop will help resolve this issue by boosting your child’s appetite and hunger. This will thereby improve your child’s nutritional status. But do make sure to speak to your child’s doctor before giving Tritone Drop to your child as that will help decide the perfect dosing and duration. It usually takes around a few days to weeks to show results. Make sure to inform the doctor if your child is taking any other medicines.

My child is restless and unable to sleep properly at night. Can I give Tritone Drop?

No. Tritone Drop indeed causes drowsiness as a side effect, but you should never give it to induce sleep in children. Consult your doctor if you have any queries regarding the use of this medicine or if your child is experiencing sleeplessness, as it could be due to some other underlying disease.

How much Tritone Drop should I give to my child?

Adhere to the dose prescribed by your child’s doctor. The dose of the medicine is calculated according to your child’s body weight and age. Do not increase or decrease the dose on your own, as it may cause unwanted effects and can worsen your child’s condition.

How should Tritone Drop be stored?

Tritone Drop should be stored at room temperature, in a dry place, away from direct heat and light. Keep all medicines out of the reach and sight of children to avoid any accidental intake.

When do I need to call my child’s doctor right away?

Never hesitate to consult your child’s doctor in case of any confusion regarding dosage, duration, side effects, etc. Contact your child’s doctor immediately if your child develops serious side effects. These may include allergic reactions (such as facial swelling and trouble breathing), signs of liver problems (such as dark-colored urine, yellow eyes or skin), excessive sleepiness, rapid heartbeat, hallucinations, feeling confused or hyperactive, trouble passing urine, irritability, and vision changes.
