My five-year-old child has been prescribed Sporidex 250 mg tablet three times a day. After taking the first dose today, he experienced loose stools and vomiting. Should we continue the course?
No, you should not continue this medication. Contact your doctor or paediatrician immediately, as these symptoms may indicate an allergic reaction or side effects. Your child may need a safer alternative antibiotic. In the meantime, ensure your child stays rested and well hydrated.
