Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Abd Suspension 10ml. However, if your child experiences any severe side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Nausea: Try giving Abd Suspension 10ml to your child with food or milk to lessen the effect of nausea.
Fatigue: If your child seems tired after taking this medicine, it might be best to give it to them at bedtime.

Abd Suspension 10ml contains albendazole (200 mg), which works on your child's body as follows:

Disrupts Metabolism of Parasites: Albendazole interferes with the metabolism of parasitic worms which leads to their death. It prevents the formation of substances called microtubules in the cells of the worm's intestine. Microtubules are essential for the worms to absorb nutrients.
Depletes Energy Stores: The disruption caused by albendazole decreases the parasite's energy stores. Specifically, it depletes stores of glycogen, a type of sugar that provides energy.
Leads to Elimination: Once the parasites are killed by albendazole, they are eliminated from your child's body through the stool.

Liver

If your child has a history of liver disease or dysfunction, you need to exercise caution while giving Abd Suspension 10ml. This medicine might influence liver function, so it's wise to consult your doctor beforehand.

Kidney

We advise you to be cautious while giving Abd Suspension 10ml if your child has any kidney health issues. A consultation with your doctor prior to starting this medicine would be beneficial.

Abd Suspension 10ml is contraindicated for children allergic to the benzimidazole class of compounds or any other components in its formulation. Therefore, ensure that you inform your doctor about any known allergies before giving this medicine to your child.

Children

While this medicine is indeed formulated for children, it's always advisable to consult your doctor before giving Abd Suspension 10ml to your child.

Abd Suspension 10ml interacts with the following medicines:

Steroids: Medicines such as dexamethasone may increase the levels of albendazole in the body, affecting its action.
Gastric Acid Suppressors: Cimetidine can increase the concentration of albendazole sulfoxide, changing its effect.
Bronchodilators: Albendazole may increase the levels of medicines like theophylline used for asthma, leading to increased side effects.

Drug-Food Interactions

Give Abd Suspension 10ml with a high-fat meal; it increases solubility and absorption. Give it with food when treating systemic infections.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Abd Suspension 10ml Interacts with the Following Diseases:

Liver Disease: Children with liver disease should be given this medicine cautiously, as it could worsen their condition.
Neurocysticercosis: If your child has this condition, they might experience neurological symptoms like seizures or increased pressure in the brain while giving Abd Suspension 10ml.
Bone Marrow Suppression: This medicine might further decrease blood cell production in children with conditions that suppress bone marrow function.

Daily Dose

Your child's doctor will work out the precise dose of Abd Suspension 10ml for your little one. This dose could depend on factors like how severe the condition is and how well your child responds to the medicine. Always follow the prescribed dosage, and never change it without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

If you accidentally give your child more than the prescribed amount of Abd Suspension 10ml, they may experience overdose symptoms such as abdominal pain, feeling sick, vomiting, and diarrhoea. If these symptoms persist or worsen, make sure to consult your child's doctor.

Missed Dose

If you forget to give your child their dose of Abd Suspension 10ml, do so as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for their next dose, skip the missed one and continue with the regular schedule. Never give extra doses without consulting your child's doctor.
