Q. Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Azonid Syrup?
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.
Q. Which all lab tests should my child undergo while taking Azonid Syrup 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.
Q. Can Azonid Syrup impact my child’s digestion?
Children often have a sensitive stomach and develop a stomach upset while taking medicines. When antibiotics are given, the good bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract may too get affected. Azonid Syrup may kill off good bacteria along with the bad ones, increasing your child’s risk of developing other infections. So, in case your child is having diarrhea while on Azonid Syrup, do not stop the medicine course. Instead, call your child’s doctor to ask the next steps. In some cases, the doctor may alter the dose.
Q. Why is Azonid Syrup given for 3 days?
The duration of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated and the age of the patient. Azonid Syrup is not necessarily given for 3 days. In most bacterial infections, a single dose of 500 mg is given for 3 days. Alternatively, it can be given as 500 mg once on day 1 and then 250 mg once from day 2 to day 5. In some cases of infection such as genital ulcer disease, it is given as a single 1 gram dose. Therefore, you must stick to the regimen advised by your doctor.
Q. What should I avoid while taking Azonid Syrup?
Generally, it is recommended that patients taking Azonid Syrup should avoid taking any antacid with this medicine as this can affect the overall effectiveness of Azonid Syrup. It is also recommended to avoid exposure to sunlight or tanning beds as Azonid Syrup increases the risk of sunburn.
Q. Is Azonid Syrup a strong antibiotic?
Azonid Syrup is an effective antibiotic that is used for the treatment of many bacterial infections. Compared to other antibiotics, Azonid Syrup has a longer half-life which means that it stays in the body for a long time because of which it is given once a day and for a short span of time. Other antibiotics comparatively have a shorter half-life and are usually given twice, thrice, or four times a day.
Q. Can you get a yeast infection from taking Azonid Syrup?
Some people may get a fungal or yeast infection known as thrush after taking Azonid Syrup. Antibiotics such as Azonid Syrup can kill the normal or ‘good bacteria’ of your intestine responsible for preventing thrush. You should inform your doctor if you get a sore or vaginal itching or discharge. Also, inform your doctor if you get a white patch in the mouth or tongue after taking Azonid Syrup or soon after stopping it.
