About Nizonide Oral Suspension
Nizonide Oral Suspension is an antiprotozoal medicine used to treat diarrhoea in children. It helps treat diarrhoea caused by parasites (Giardia lamblia or Cryptosporidium parvum) in the intestine. Diarrhoea is a symptom that causes frequent (more than 4 times) passing of loose or watery stools. Nizonide Oral Suspension also treats protozoa infections caused by single-cell parasites that live in moist places like lakes, streams, and soil.
Nizonide Oral Suspension contains Nitazoxanide, which belongs to the class of drugs known as thiazolides. Nitazoxanide is a broad-spectrum anti-parasitic medication. This medicine works by inhibiting chemical substances required for energy metabolism and growth of protozoa, helminths (worm-like parasites), anaerobic (microbes that survive without oxygen), and microaerophilic (requires little oxygen to survive) viruses.
Nizonide Oral Suspension may cause certain side effects in your child such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and fever. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your paediatrician. Nizonide Oral Suspension should be taken as advised by your paediatrician. Do not give more than the prescribed dose of Nizonide Oral Suspension to the child. Nizonide Oral Suspension should be given with food to your child. The dose of the medicine will be decided by your paediatrician depending on the type and severity of the infection.
Nizonide Oral Suspension is intended for pediatric use only. Avoid giving Nizonide Oral Suspension to your child if she/he is allergic to antibiotics. Keep your doctor informed about your child’s health condition including his current medications and medical history to rule out any side effects/interactions. Before administration, let your doctor know if your child has/had liver or kidney disease, asthma or a weakened immune system. Nizonide Oral Suspension is not recommended for use in children below one year of age as its safety and efficacy are not established.
