Will There Be Any Side Effect Of Combiflame To My Child?
Hello, my baby boy is 2 months old. Doctor prescribed him combiflame syrup and Mox syrup after triple 7 vaccination as the pus formation developed at injected site? Are they ok? Give any side effects to my baby? How much dose and how long dosage is safe for the infants?

Mox is an antibiotic while Combiflam has anti-inflammatory and analgesic action. Mox needs to be given for 5 days while combiflam is better given as and when required, preferably after feeds. Mox is a very safe medicine and can be given without any worries. Combiflam is ok if a few doses are given in full stomach but otherwise it can lead to conditions like hyperacidity or gastritis. But I would not really worry if the child requires a few doses in such a condition.
