Your child’s medicine at a glance

Give Olfo M Suspension to your child orally, preferably at a fixed time, either before or after food. In case your child develops stomach upset, prefer giving it with food. The usual 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, insomnia, headache, dizziness, diarrhea, vomiting, and 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, or kidney malfunction. This will guide the doctor in planning your child’s overall treatment.

Benefits of Olfo M Suspension for your child

Treatment of Bacterial & parasitic infections
Olfo M Suspension is an antibiotic medicine given to children for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial and parasitic infections. These infections may include tooth abscess, gum infection, pneumonia, diarrhea, dysentery, burning sensation while passing urine, and genital tract infection. Olfo M Suspension inhibits the growth of infection-causing organisms by stopping them from multiplying. It is most likely that your child’s infection will start showing improvement within 3 to 5 days of the regular dosing. Make sure to complete the full course of treatment even if your child feels better. Stopping the medicine abruptly by yourself may worsen your child’s condition or cause infection recurrence.

How can I give Olfo M Suspension to my child?

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Olfo M Suspension may be taken with or without food.

How Olfo M Suspension works

Olfo M Suspension is an antibiotic, having ofloxacin and metronidazole 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.

Quick tips

  • If your child develops diarrhea as a side effect, encourage them to drink plenty of water.
  • Olfo M Suspension may cause an altered taste. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help.
  • Do not give any calcium, magnesium, iron, vitamin, or antacid to your child within 2 hours of taking Olfo M Suspension as these can affect the absorption of the medicine.
  • Conditions like common cold and flu are caused by viruses. Never use this medicine for such conditions.
  • Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again, become resistant, or cause another infection.
  • Discontinue Olfo M Suspension and inform the doctor immediately if your child develops a rash, itchy skin, swelling of face and mouth, or has difficulty in breathing.
  • Never save the medicine for future illnesses since its effectiveness in future infections cannot be guaranteed.
