Is Azithral XL The Same As Azithral?

My pediatrician prescribed Azithral 200 Liquid(15ml bottle) for my 2 years old son yesterday but the medicine shop i visited gave me Azithral XL 200 liquid (30 ml bottle). I found the composition of both the medicines to be same as printed in the cover but the Azithral XL seems to be of a higher dose. Kindly advice, are both these medicines same and is it safe to give Azithral XL 200 Liquid instead of Azithral 200 Liquid?
