Gebinor-M Oral Suspension
Prescription Required
Your child’s medicine at a glance
Gebinor-M Oral Suspension is an antibiotic medicine that effectively treats a wide range of bacterial and parasitic infections. In children, it is used to treat infections of the teeth, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, and genital tract. It also disintegrates gas bubbles and allows easy passage of gas.
Give Gebinor-M Oral Suspension to your child orally, preferably at a fixed time, either before or after food. In case your child develops a stomach upset, prefer giving it with food. The usually prescribed frequency is twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of intake, repeat the same dose but never double up the dose if it is time for the next dose. The dose and duration depend upon the type and severity of the infection, your child’s age, and body weight, so stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed by the doctor.
Some children may develop minor and temporary side effects after taking this medicine. These include nausea, vomiting, anorexia, metallic taste, headache, loss of appetite, abdominal cramps, and mild skin rash. These side effects usually go away once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. However, in case they persist for long or start bothering your child, you must consult your child’s doctor without any delay.
Your child’s doctor must be aware if your child has ever had any previous episode of allergy, heart problem, liver impairment, and kidney malfunction. This will guide the doctor in planning your child’s overall treatment.

How Gebinor-M Oral Suspension works
Gebinor-M Oral Suspension is a combination of three active ingredients. While two of its ingredients, namely norfloxacin and metronidazole are antibiotics, simethicone is a gas-absorbing agent that prevents gastric problems due to this medicine. The antibiotic ingredients interfere with the genetic material of bacteria by impairing its DNA. This kills the infection-causing bacteria, preventing its growth and stopping the infection. On the other hand, Simethicone binds with the gas bubbles produced as a result of the other two ingredients or as a result of some other problem. By doing so, Simethicone aids in the removal of gases and provides relief in stomach pain and bloating.

FAQs
My child has a genetic deficiency of the G-6-PD enzyme. Is it safe to give Gebinor-M Oral Suspension?
It is advised that you get your child’s G6PD deficiency evaluated before starting the course of treatment. Avoid giving Gebinor-M Oral Suspension as deficiency of G6PD enzymes can lead to breaking of blood cells resulting in severe anemia.
Can Gebinor-M Oral Suspension be given along with cough and cold medicines?
No, do not give Gebinor-M Oral Suspension with cough and cold medicines. Gebinor-M Oral Suspension can interact with alcohol-containing medicines like cough syrups and cause disulfiram reaction, leading to side effects such as nausea, vomiting, flushing, dizziness, etc.
What if I give excess Gebinor-M Oral Suspension by mistake?
An extra dose of Gebinor-M Oral Suspension is unlikely to cause any harm. But, you must still be vigilant because overdose increases the risk of unwanted side effects such as seizures, tremors, severe headache, sudden weakness, blood cell abnormalities, and rapid and irregular heartbeat. Rush to your child’s doctor on an immediate basis if you notice any of these symptoms. If you think you have given too much Gebinor-M Oral Suspension to your child, immediately speak to a doctor.
What should I do if my child shows no improvement even after taking Gebinor-M Oral Suspension for the prescribed duration?
Speak to your child’s doctor if your child does not show any improvement even after completing the dose. It could mean that the medicine is not able to act against the infection-causing bacteria. Your child’s doctor may change Gebinor-M Oral Suspension and prescribe some other antibiotic that is known to have a stronger impact on the infection-causing bacteria.
What should I tell the doctor before giving Gebinor-M Oral Suspension to my child?
Inform the doctor if your child is suffering from heart disease, genetic disorders involving blood vessels, seizures, psychiatric disorders, diabetes, photo allergy (allergy from sunlight), neuromuscular disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis. This is because there is a possibility that Gebinor-M Oral Suspension may aggravate these conditions and result in complications.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Gebinor-M Oral Suspension?
Gebinor-M Oral Suspension can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Gebinor-M Oral Suspension. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Gebinor-M Oral Suspension?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines and do not cause any bad reactions due to vaccinations. However, children taking antibiotics should not get vaccinated until they recover from the illness. So, you can get your child vaccinated as soon as they feel better.
