Uses of Meddy Tablet
Benefits of Meddy Tablet
In Treatment of Nausea
Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, major surgeries, and abdominal infection put your child at risk of developing severe nausea and vomiting. It happens due to the release of a chemical called serotonin. Meddy 2mg Tablet acts by blocking the effect of this chemical and prevents nausea and vomiting. It also helps your child to recover more comfortably from these treatments. Stick to the prescribed dose, time, and way, and do not increase or decrease the dose by yourself without consulting your child’s doctor as it may result in side effects.
Side effects of Meddy Tablet
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How to use Meddy Tablet
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Meddy 2mg Tablet may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
How Meddy Tablet works
During radiotherapy, chemotherapy, abdominal infection, or any major surgeries, the dead cells in the body start releasing a chemical called serotonin directly into the blood. Later, this stimulates special centers in the body that are responsible for inducing vomiting in your child. Giving Meddy 2mg Tablet just before the procedure helps block the effect of this chemical on vomiting centers of the brain and prevents vomiting.

What if my child takes too much Meddy 2mg Tablet?
Meddy 2mg Tablet is unlikely to cause harm if you give an extra dose by mistake. However, you must still speak to your child’s doctor immediately.

These symptoms are collectively known as serotonin syndrome. If any of these appear, consult the doctor without any delay.
How should Meddy 2mg Tablet be stored?

What all medicines should my child avoid while taking Meddy 2mg Tablet?
Usually, it is advised not to give Meddy 2mg Tablet along with antidepressant medicines, apomorphine, anti-migraine medicines, painkillers, heart medicines, and antibiotics like linezolid. But, it is ideal to speak to your child’s doctor before coming to any conclusion. So, narrate your child’s complete medical history to your child’s doctor and follow their advice strictly.
In what conditions do I need to call my child’s doctor right away?
Call your child’s doctor immediately if your child develops symptoms of serotonin syndrome like irregular heartbeat, green-colored vomiting, inability to pass wind, pale skin and eyes, dark-colored urine, restlessness, and insomnia.
My child is having a migraine and is on medication. Can I give Meddy 2mg Tablet along with it?
