Oflomet

Although an extra dose of Oflomet Suspension will not have any side effects, you must always be vigilant. If you think you have given too much Oflomet Suspension to your child, immediately speak to a doctor. 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.

Ineffective treatment with Oflomet Suspension could mean that the medicine is not able to act against the infection-causing bacteria. In such a case, visit your child’s doctor who may prescribe some other antibiotic, having more specific action toward the infection-causing bacteria.

Oflomet Suspension can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Oflomet Suspension. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
