Podo 50mg Dry Syrup

Your doctor may prescribe Podo 50mg Dry Syrup to help manage the following conditions:

• Middle ear infections (Acute otitis media): It helps clear the bacterial infection behind the eardrum, relieving ear pain and swelling in children.
• Throat and tonsil infections (Pharyngitis and tonsillitis): It targets and eliminates the bacteria causing throat soreness, pain when swallowing, and inflammation.
• Sinus infections (Sinusitis): It helps clear bacterial congestion and inflammation in the nasal passages.
• Chest infections (Bronchitis and pneumonia): It treats infections in the airways and lungs, helping to ease breathing and reduce coughing.
• Urinary tract infections (UTIs): It eliminates bacteria in the urinary system, relieving pain and burning during urination.

When used as directed as part of your treatment plan, this medicine may provide the following benefits:

• Relieves Infection Symptoms: Podo 50mg Dry Syrup provides effective relief from painful symptoms by directly targeting the source of the infection. Within a few days of starting the treatment, children often experience a noticeable reduction in fever, pain, and congestion, allowing them to return to their normal daily activities and play.
• Child-Friendly Syrup: Because it comes in a dry syrup form that is reconstituted into a liquid, it is easy to swallow for young children who cannot take tablets. This helps ensure that children receive their full doses comfortably, leading to a smoother and faster recovery.

• Podo 50mg Dry Syrup can be given 1 hour before or 2 hours after meals. Try giving it to your child with food to avoid stomach upset.
• Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication, or use it as per the labelled instructions.
• Mix the dry syrup with boiled, cooled water to the mark on the label, then shake the bottle well.
• Measure the prescribed dose using the measuring cup/dosing syringe/dropper provided with the pack and administer it orally to your child.
• The solution should be used within 7 days of preparation.

• Offer plenty of fluids: Keep your child well-hydrated with water, clear broths, or oral rehydration solutions, especially if they have mild diarrhoea.
• Incorporate gut-friendly foods: After your child finishes their antibiotic course, consider offering yoghurt or probiotic-rich foods to help restore the natural balance of healthy bacteria in their gut.
• Encourage restful sleep: Ensure your child gets extra rest and sleep, as this helps their immune system fight off the infection more effectively.
• Serve small, frequent meals: If your child experiences mild nausea, offering smaller, bland meals throughout the day can be easier on their stomach than three large meals.

• Check the expiration date: Always verify the expiry date on the pack before mixing the dry powder with water.
• Check the liquid colour: Inspect the mixed liquid before each use; do not use it if you notice any unusual colour changes, clumping, or particles that do not dissolve after shaking.
• Never share antibiotics: This medicine is specifically prescribed for your child's current infection; never give it to other children or use it for future illnesses without a doctor's advice.
• Use the provided measuring device: Do not use household spoons to measure the medicine, as this can easily lead to giving the wrong dose.
• Monitor for secondary infections: Watch for signs of oral thrush (white patches in the mouth) or new fungal diaper rashes, which can sometimes occur during or after antibiotic treatment.
