About Carnipil Syrup

Carnipil Syrup is indicated in the treatment of primary and secondary levocarnitine deficiency in children below 12 years, infants and newborns. Levocarnitine deficiency occurs when the body has a shortage of levocarnitine.

Carnipil Syrup contains Levocarnitine, an amino acid that improves the levels of carnitine in the body. It compensates for the body’s lack of levocarnitine and helps the body generate more energy.

In some cases, Carnipil Syrup may cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Let the doctor know if your child is allergic to any of the components in Carnipil Syrup . Keep the doctor informed about your child’s health condition and medications to rule out any side effects/interactions.
