CompositionZofer Syrup is used to prevent and treat nausea and vomiting in children, especially during recovery from surgery or as a side effect of treatments such as chemotherapy. It contains ondansetron, which blocks signals in the gut and brain that trigger vomiting.
Administer the exact dose prescribed by your paediatrician, usually about thirty minutes before a medical procedure or at the first sign of nausea, using the measuring device provided. This pleasant tasting liquid is easy to give to children who find swallowing tablets difficult.
Offer small sips of water or clear fluids once your child feels settled, to help prevent dehydration from vomiting. Avoid giving large meals immediately after a dose, and let your child rest in a comfortable, calm environment.
Tell your doctor if your child has a history of heart rhythm problems or electrolyte imbalances before starting this medicine. Seek medical advice if vomiting continues despite treatment, or if your child shows signs of dehydration such as reduced urination or dry lips.
