Is Augmentin Dds Safe For Baby?
Hi.. Is augmentin dds is safe medicine to give a 3 year old child. Many doc have told me that it's the hardest antibiotic which is given only in critical conditions but our paediatrician always prescribe augmentin dds for throat and other kind of infections.

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. You should be worried but not too much. Augmentin is usual amoxiclav . It is very helpful for Streptococcal infection, which causes tonsillitis at babies. The most common side effect-diarrhea , but if child will take also probiotics-Vizylac or Bifilac,then you will not have it.
