What Are The Side Effects Of Emeset Syrup?
My son 6 yrs was suffering from vomitting & loose motion since last 3 days. He was administered emeset syrup for 2 days. He felt better but when his vomitting tendency did not stop in the 3rd day, it was suggested to continue emeset syrup for couple of more days. After administering the same, again he has been asked to continue for 2 more days. Is it ok? Will there be any side effects ?
