Zincofine Syrup is a mineral supplement used to treat and prevent zinc deficiency. It is used in children with respiratory tract infections, acute and persistent diarrhoea, common cold, Wilson's disease, and as an immunity booster. A mineral deficiency occurs when the body fails to absorb or obtain sufficient minerals from food. Minerals are essential for the body's development and the prevention of diseases.

Zincofine Syrup contains zinc, an essential trace element involved in various body enzyme functions. It helps strengthen the immune system and relieves flu and cold symptoms in children. It also helps with the growth and maintenance of good health.

Your paediatrician will determine the dose of Zincofine Syrup based on the type and severity of the condition. Sometimes, your child may experience common side effects, such as regurgitation (bringing up food that has been swallowed), nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach pain, lethargy (a lack of energy), and indigestion. Most of these side effects do not require any medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if your child experiences these side effects persistently.

Let your doctor know if your child is using any other medicines or herbal products before starting Zincofine Syrup. Refrain from using Zincofine Syrup if your child is allergic to any of its components. Zincofine Syrup should be given to children only if a doctor advises; the dose may vary depending on the child’s weight.

• Zincofine Syrup should be given after meals.
• Follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and duration of the medication.
• Administer the recommended dose to the child using the measuring cup, measuring spoon, or dropper.
• Avoid using regular household spoons, as they may not accurately measure the dose. Shake well before use.
