Prescription Required
Your child’s medicine at a glance
Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension is an antibiotic medicine that is effective against 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.
Give Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg 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, 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 Supergyl Suspension works
Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension is an antibiotic, having metronidazole and norfloxacin as its active ingredients. Both these medicines damage the DNA of the infection-causing bacteria, thus killing it by stopping its growth. This prevents the infection from spreading without making the bacteria resistant to further treatment.

FAQs
Supergyl Suspension
My child is having a genetic deficiency of the G6PD enzyme. Is it safe to give Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension?
It is advised that you get your child’s G6PD deficiency evaluated before starting the course of treatment. Avoid giving Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension as deficiency of G6PD enzymes can lead to breaking of blood cells resulting in severe anemia.
Can Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension be given along with cough and cold medicines?
No, do not give Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension with cough and cold medicines. Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg 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 Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension by mistake?
An extra dose of Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg 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 Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension to your child, immediately speak to a doctor.
What should I do if my child shows no improvement even after taking Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg 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 Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension and prescribe some other antibiotic which is known to have a stronger impact on the infection-causing bacteria.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension?
Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg 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 Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension?
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.
What should I tell the doctor before giving Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension to my child?
Inform the doctor if your child is suffering from heart disease, genetic disorders involving blood vessels, seizures, psychiatric disorders, diabetes, photoallergy (allergy from sunlight), neuromuscular disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis. This is because there is a possibility that Supergyl 100 mg/100 mg Suspension may aggravate these conditions and result in complications.
