• Q. Q. What if I give excess O Q M Suspension by mistake??
  Ans: Although an extra dose of O Q M Suspension will not have any side effects, you must always be vigilant. If you think you have given too much O Q M 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.
• Q. Q. What should I do if my child shows no improvement even after taking O Q M Suspension for the prescribed duration??
  Ans: Ineffective treatment with O Q M 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.
• Q. Q. Can other medicines be given at the same time as O Q M Suspension??
  Ans: O Q M Suspension can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting O Q M Suspension. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
• Q. Q. Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with O Q M Suspension??
  Ans: 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. Q. What should I tell the doctor before giving O Q M Suspension to my child??
  Ans: Inform the doctor if your child is suffering from heart disease, genetic disorders involving blood vessels, seizures, psychiatric disorders, diabetes, photoallergy (allergy from sunlight), neuromuscular disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis. This is because there is a possibility that O Q M Suspension may aggravate these conditions and result in complications.
• Q. Q. My child has been passing red-brown urine ever since he started taking O Q M Suspension. Is it normal??

• Q. Q. My child is having a common cold. Is it safe to give O Q M Suspension along with cough & cold medicines??
