It does so by restoring the balance of good bacteria in the intestine.

Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup is a combination of two medicines: Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup1 and Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup2.

What if I give too much of Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup by mistake?

Avoid giving more than the recommended dose because overdose may cause unwanted side effects and may even worsen your child’s condition. Although an extra dose of Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup is unlikely to harm, if you think you have given too much of Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup to your child, immediately speak to a doctor.

Are there any possible serious side effects of Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup?

In rare cases, Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup may cause some serious side effects such as persistent vomiting, kidney damage, and allergy. Always consult your child’s doctor for help in such a situation.

Can other medicines be given at the same time as Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup?

Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.

Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Aelxim 50 LB Dry Syrup?

Antibiotics usually do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a bad reaction in a child who has just been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not get vaccinated until they recover from the illness. As soon as your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.

The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?

No, yellow or green mucus in the nose does not mean that antibiotics are needed. It is normal for mucus to thicken up and change from clear to yellow or green. With symptoms often lasting for 7-10 days, this is exactly how a common cold generally progresses.
