From last 5 days after completing the course of Taxim-O for 7 to 10 days, he is taking injection Monocef 750mg and Ofloxacin 200mg BD. He has already taked 5days dose of these injection and now his veins are blocking and he is feeling pain while taking injection. So, pls suggest any subsitute of these injection so that we can take it orally.

If your child is asymptomatic and there is no Fever then there appears no need of giving the drug intravenously instead oral drug will be better. Oral Ofloxacin can be used.
