Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Give probiotics after completing the full course of Keflor Strawberry Oral Suspension to restore some healthy bacteria in the intestines that may have been killed. Giving probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like cheese, yoghurt, kombucha, sauerkraut, and kimchi can restore the good bacteria of the intestine.
  • Include fibre-rich foods, as they can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Thus, fibre-rich foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains such as whole-grain bread and brown rice should be included in your child's diet.
  • Make sure your child drinks plenty of water or other fluids every day while using Keflor Strawberry Oral Suspension.
