Aldezol DF Syrup

Give Aldezol DF Syrup to your child orally, with food, preferably at a fixed time. Giving it with food helps prevent the risk of developing a stomach upset. The usually prescribed frequency is three times a day, once each in the morning, afternoon, and at bedtime, keeping a gap of a minimum of 6 hours between two doses. Always give the dose as prescribed by the doctor since that depends on the severity and type of infection, body weight, and age of your child. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of intake, repeat the same dose but never double up the dose if it is time for the next dose.

It works inside the large intestine to kill the infection-causing amoeba (parasites). Together, they treat your infection effectively.
