Are there any possible serious side effects of Monozen 50mg Oral Suspension?
Some serious side effects of this medicine include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergy, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. Always consult your child’s doctor for help in such a situation.

Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Monozen 50mg Oral Suspension on a long-term basis?
The doctor may prescribe getting kidney function tests and liver function tests periodically to keep a check on your child’s condition.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?

Can Monozen 50mg Oral Suspension lead to bacterial resistance in my child?
