Can Taking Flucloxacillin Cause Vomiting In A Child?
Hi
My 1 yr old boy (10kg approx) vomits every time he takes flucloxacillin syrup. He is prescribed this antibiotic by the GP fro the treatment of Cellulitis on forearm. He does not seem to have any severe side affects other than vomiting.
Is there something that we can do to stop his vomiting ?

Hi...you can try giving Syrup Ondansetron 30 minute before giving this antibiotic and I suggest you consult your primary pediatrician regarding this as this is a prescription drug.
