Ofler M Mango Flavour Suspension (Metronidazole 100 mg + Ofloxacin 50 mg) is generally not recommended for children younger than 2 years because of potential safety concerns with ofloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic.
⚠️ Safety Considerations
- Ofloxacin use in children under 2 years is usually avoided due to risk of joint and tendon issues.
- Metronidazole may be used in children but only under strict medical guidance.
- This combination should only be given if prescribed and supervised by a pediatrician who has evaluated the child's condition carefully.
🩺 What You Should Do
