How Servil Baby Syrup works

FAQs

My child is having a cough with no mucus. Can I give Servil Baby Syrup?

No, Servil Baby Syrup is advised for the treatment of wet cough. It aims to expel the mucus from the airway tract, thereby relieving your child from throat irritation, congestion and rendering him a soothing effect. Whereas, for a dry cough, cough suppressants are a better option. So, it will be wise if you ask your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.

What should I do in case my child misses his/her dose of Servil Baby Syrup?

If your child’s doctor has advised you to give Servil Baby Syrup regularly to your child, then give the missed dose as soon as you remember. It is best to maintain a log of your child’s dose as it helps prevent missed doses. However, if it is close to the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your normal dosing routine. Do not give two doses at the same time. Many times Servil Baby Syrup is used on an as-needed basis. Do not give more often than told by the child’s doctor.

What are the serious side effects of Servil Baby Syrup?

Servil Baby Syrup is a combination medicine. It contains the active ingredient salbutamol which can cause electrolyte imbalance. As a result, your child may experience signs of low potassium levels like muscle pain or weakness, muscle cramps, or a heartbeat that does not feel normal in your child. In such bothersome episodes consult your child’s doctor without a delay.

When should I call my child’s doctor right away?

You must call the doctor right away if your child’s prescribed dose does not work well or if your child’s signs and symptoms get worse over time. Also, reach out to the doctor immediately if you feel a need to give Servil Baby Syrup more often. In such cases, never self-medicate and consult your child’s doctor on a priority basis.

Can I give my cough medicine to my child?
