My child is suffering from anemia and is on oral iron therapy. Is it safe to give T-Nir Dry Syrup along with it?

It is not advised to give T-Nir Dry Syrup with oral iron therapy as it binds to iron preparation in your child’s digestive system and can result in reddish stools.

Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with T-Nir Dry Syrup ?

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.

What laboratory tests will the doctor ask for while my child is taking T-Nir Dry Syrup on a long term basis?

The doctor may prescribe getting kidney function tests and liver function tests periodically to keep a check on your child’s condition.

The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?

The color of the mucus cannot be used to understand whether your child needs antibiotics or not. It is normal for the mucus to change color during a common cold infection.

Can T-Nir Dry Syrup affect my child’s digestive system?

Diarrhea is a common side effect of antibiotics because apart from killing the bad bacteria, antibiotics may unintentionally kill the good ones too. On top of that, children often have a sensitive stomach which increases the risk of developing other infections. In case your child is having diarrhea while on T-Nir Dry Syrup, do not stop the medicine course. Instead, call your child’s doctor to ask about the next steps. In some cases, the doctor may alter the dose.
