Stan-Prim Paediatric Oral Suspension 60 ml

Stan-Prim Paediatric Oral Suspension is commonly prescribed to treat several types of bacterial infections:

• Urinary tract infections (UTIs): It clears bacterial infections in the bladder and kidneys, helping to relieve painful and frequent urination.
• Middle ear infections (otitis media): It targets the bacteria causing painful ear infections, particularly in children.
• Chronic bronchitis flare-ups: It treats sudden bacterial complications in people with ongoing lung and airway inflammation.
• Traveller's diarrhoea: It stops the growth of bacteria in the digestive tract that cause stomach cramps and loose stools during travel.
• Pneumocystis pneumonia: It prevents and treats a serious, specific type of lung infection in individuals with weakened immune systems.

Stan-Prim Paediatric Oral Suspension combines two antibiotics that block successive steps in bacterial folate production, helping control susceptible infections. Its benefits include:

• Treats Bacterial Infections: Helps eliminate susceptible bacteria responsible for certain urinary tract, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and other bacterial infections.
• Relieves Infection-Related Symptoms: By controlling the underlying infection, it helps reduce symptoms such as fever, pain, inflammation, and general discomfort.
• Provides Dual-Action Antibacterial Activity: The two antibiotics block successive steps in bacterial folate production, providing effective antibacterial action against susceptible organisms.
• Helps Prevent Infection Progression: Timely and complete treatment may reduce the risk of the infection worsening or spreading to other parts of the body.
• Protects Vulnerable Patients from Opportunistic Infections: May be used to prevent or treat Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia in certain people with weakened immune systems.

• Take Stan-Prim Paediatric Oral Suspension with food or as advised by your doctor.
• It is advised to take Stan-Prim Paediatric Oral Suspension once daily; however, follow your doctor’s recommendation regarding the dosage and duration.
• Swallow it as a whole with a glass of water.
• Do not crush, chew, or break it.

Stay Well-Hydrated: Drink adequate water throughout the day unless your doctor has advised fluid restriction. Good hydration may help reduce the risk of crystals forming in the urine.

• Protect Your Skin from Sunlight: Limit prolonged sun exposure and avoid tanning beds, as this medicine may increase sensitivity to sunlight. Use sunscreen and wear protective clothing outdoors.
• Support Digestive Health: If you wish to use probiotics or probiotic-containing foods, ask your doctor or pharmacist about suitable options and appropriate timing during antibiotic treatment.
• Use Caution with High-Potassium Foods if Advised: Stan-Prim Paediatric Oral Suspension may increase blood potassium levels in some people, particularly those with kidney impairment or those taking other medicines that raise potassium. Follow your doctor's dietary advice.

Complete the Full Course: Take the medicine for the entire prescribed duration, even if you start feeling better earlier, unless your doctor tells you to stop.

• Shake Liquid Formulations Well: If you are using an oral suspension, shake the bottle thoroughly before each dose and use the provided measuring device.
• Check the Expiry Date: Do not use expired medicine or any product with damaged or tampered packaging.
• Monitor Blood Sugar if You Have Diabetes: Closer glucose monitoring may be needed, as this medicine can occasionally cause low blood sugar, particularly in susceptible individuals.
• Report Serious Symptoms Promptly: Contact your doctor promptly if you develop a new rash. Seek urgent medical help for a severe, spreading, blistering, or peeling rash, or if you develop facial swelling, breathing difficulty, persistent sore throat, unexplained fever, or unusual bruising.
