Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Oratil 125mg 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.
Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When to start an antibiotic to prevent infection?
In most cases, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics to treat viral infections may instead lead to side effects without benefiting your child's health. Hence, you must give antibiotics to your child only after consulting with your child’s doctor.
Can Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension impact my child’s digestion?
Antibiotics kill the infection-causing bacteria, but while doing this they may affect the good bacteria present in the gastrointestinal tract. As a result, your child may develop diarrhea or some other infections as well. Moreover, children have a more sensitive stomach than adults, so the likelihood of developing a stomach upset is more. In case your child is having diarrhea while on Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension, do not stop the medicine course. Instead, call your child’s doctor to ask about the next steps. In some cases, the doctor may alter the dose.
How long does Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension take to work?
The amount of time Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension takes to work depends on the type of infection and response of the patient to the medicine. The antibiotic may start working after you take it, but for maximum effect, it may require some time. Usually, the symptoms of bacterial infections start to decrease in 48 to 72 hours after starting the medication.
How long should you take Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension?
The duration of therapy with Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension depends upon the type of infection. It is usually given for 7 days. It ranges from 5 to 10 days and depends on the response of the infection in the patient. Before starting the medication consult a doctor who will prescribe the exact duration of therapy and follow the instructions as given.
Can Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension be taken on an empty stomach?
No, Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension should not be taken on an empty stomach like other antibiotics of its class. It should be taken twice daily after a meal. Taking Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension with food increases the absorption rate of the drug. This further enhances the effectiveness of the medicine to treat the infection.
Can Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension treat UTI?
Yes, Oratil 125mg Oral Suspension can be used to treat urinary tract infection (UTI). But, it is prescribed only in cases of uncomplicated UTIs for 7 to 10 days. The medication is to be prescribed by the doctor only, self-medication is not advised. The severity of the UTI decides the kind of therapy needed to treat it.
