Roxid Liquid Mint is unlikely to cause any harm if an extra dose is given by mistake. However, if you think you have given too much of Roxid Liquid Mint to your child, immediately speak to a doctor. Overdose may cause unwanted side effects and may even worsen your child’s condition.
What are the serious side effects of Roxid Liquid Mint?
Some serious side effects of this medicine include severe gastrointestinal infections (superinfection), severe allergic reactions, liver infections, blood infections, and heart conduction abnormalities like QT prolongation due to arrhythmia. Always consult your child’s doctor for help in such a situation.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Roxid Liquid Mint?
Roxid Liquid Mint can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Roxid Liquid Mint. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
My child is having low potassium levels in blood. Is it safe to give Roxid Liquid Mint?

My child weighs 35 kg and is suffering from a bacterial chest infection. Can I give him Roxid Liquid Mint?
Safety studies in children less than 40 kg are not available. So, Roxid Liquid Mint is not recommended to be given to children who weigh less than 40 kg. It will be best if you seek the guidance of your child’s doctor.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Roxid Liquid Mint?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a bad reaction in a child who has just been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not get vaccinated until they recover from the illness. As soon as your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.
Which lab tests should my child undergo while taking Roxid Liquid Mint for the long term?
The doctor may prescribe periodic ECG and liver function tests to keep a check on your child’s condition.

No. More than 80% of sore throats and ear infections are caused by a virus, and antibiotics are not given for viral infections. If your child has a sore throat, runny nose, cough, pain, or discharge from the ear, it is most likely because of a virus. Consult your child’s doctor to seek guidance.
