Product introduction
Norozee-MZ Oral Suspension is an antibiotic medicine that effectively treats a wide range of bacterial and parasitic infections. In children, it is used to treat infections of the teeth, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, and genital tract. It also disintegrates gas bubbles and allows easy passage of gas.
Give Norozee-MZ Oral Suspension to your child orally, preferably at a fixed time, either before or after food. In case your child develops a stomach upset, prefer giving it with food. The usually prescribed 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, vomiting, anorexia, metallic taste, headache, loss of appetite, abdominal cramps, and mild skin 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, and kidney malfunction. This will guide the doctor in planning your child’s overall treatment.

How Norozee-MZ Oral Suspension works
Norozee-MZ Oral Suspension is a combination of three active ingredients. While two of its ingredients, namely norfloxacin and metronidazole are antibiotics, simethicone is a gas-absorbing agent that prevents gastric problems due to this medicine. The antibiotic ingredients interfere with the genetic material of bacteria by impairing its DNA. This kills the infection-causing bacteria, preventing its growth and stopping the infection. On the other hand, Simethicone binds with the gas bubbles produced as a result of the other two ingredients or as a result of some other problem. By doing so, Simethicone aids in the removal of gases and provides relief in stomach pain and bloating.
