Question 1

What if I give excess Lupigyl O Oral Suspension by mistake?

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

Rush to your child’s doctor on an immediate basis if you notice any of these symptoms.

Question 2

What should I do if my child shows no improvement even after taking Lupigyl O Oral Suspension for the prescribed duration?

Ineffective treatment with Lupigyl O Oral 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.

Question 3

Can other medicines be given at the same time as Lupigyl O Oral Suspension?
