Rantac Mint Syrup 100 ml

Rantac Mint Syrup is used to treat acidity in children. The detailed uses of Rantac Mint Syrup are as follows:

• Acid reflux and GERD: This medicine helps reduce the backup of stomach acid into the food pipe, preventing discomfort, irritability, and spitting up in infants and children.
• Stomach and intestinal ulcers: It helps heal painful sores in the lining of the stomach or upper intestine by lowering the overall acidity of stomach fluids.
• Inflammation of the food pipe (Esophagitis): It protects the delicate lining of the oesophagus from acid irritation, allowing inflamed tissues to heal and making swallowing easier for your child.

Rantac Mint Syrup helps reduce excess stomach acid, relieving discomfort caused by acid-related conditions and allowing irritated tissues in the digestive tract to heal. When used as prescribed, it helps improve comfort and supports recovery in children with acid reflux and related disorders.

Benefits may include:

• Reduces excess stomach acid to help relieve heartburn, acid regurgitation, and discomfort associated with acid reflux.
• Allows irritated tissues in the oesophagus and stomach to heal by reducing acid exposure.
• By easing acid-related discomfort, it may help infants and children feed more comfortably.
• Helps reduce symptoms that can interfere with eating, sleeping, and normal daily activities, supporting overall well-being during recovery.

• Rantac Mint Syrup can be given to your child with or without food, as advised by your doctor.
• It is advised to give Rantac Mint Syrup to your child as your doctor prescribes, following the recommended dosage and duration to get optimal results.
• Check the label for directions before using Rantac Mint Syrup . Give Rantac Mint Syrup to your child using a measuring cup provided with the pack.
• Avoid using regular household spoons, as they may not measure the dose correctly. Shake well before use.

• Keep your child upright after feeding: Hold your infant upright for at least 30 minutes after feedings to help reduce the likelihood of stomach acid flowing back into the food pipe.
• Offer smaller, frequent meals: Give your child smaller, more frequent feeds or meals instead of a few large ones to reduce pressure on the stomach.
• Use an appropriate bottle nipple: If bottle-feeding, ensure the nipple hole is the correct size to help prevent your baby from swallowing excess air during feeds.
• Avoid reflux-triggering foods: For older children, limit foods and drinks that can worsen reflux, such as greasy, fatty, or spicy foods, chocolate, caffeinated beverages, and carbonated drinks.

• Inspect the liquid before use: Always check the medicine before giving it to your child. Do not use it if you notice unusual colour changes, cloudiness, or floating particles.
• Maintain a dosing schedule: Keep a written record of when each dose is given to help ensure the medicine is administered consistently as prescribed.
• Avoid mixing with a full feed: Do not mix the dose into a full bottle of formula or milk, as your child may not finish the entire feed and may receive less than the prescribed dose.
• Check the expiry date: Discard any remaining liquid after the expiry date printed on the bottle or as advised by your pharmacist.
