Klaricid DS 250mg/5ml Suspension 60ml - Clarithromycin Pediatric Antibiotic

Klaricid DS 250mg/5ml Suspension 60ml - Clarithromycin Pediatric Antibiotic

Klaricid DS 60ml Suspension by Abbott contains Clarithromycin 250 mg per 5 ml in a double-strength oral suspension designed for paediatric use. It is prescribed in Pakistan for children with respiratory tract infections such as community-acquired pneumonia, acute bronchitis, sinusitis, pharyngitis and tonsillitis, as well as otitis media and skin and soft tissue infections.

The double-strength (DS) formula reduces the daily volume of liquid needed compared with 125 mg/5 ml strengths - helpful for older children or larger doses. Explore other paediatric medicines or antibiotics on Derma.pk. Prescription required.

Key Benefits

• Double-strength 250 mg/5 ml suspension - less volume per dose

How To Use

Shake well before use. Dose is weight-based and prescribed by your doctor, usually twice daily for 5-10 days. Measure each dose with the supplied measuring cup or oral syringe - not a household spoon. Complete the full prescribed course even if your child feels better. Store as directed on the label.

Safety & Precautions

Do not use if your child is allergic to clarithromycin, erythromycin or other macrolides. Inform the doctor about liver or kidney problems, heart rhythm issues and any other medicines - clarithromycin can interact with several drugs and may prolong the QT interval. Common side effects include diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting and taste change. Prescription required.
