Adhere to the prescribed dose, time, and way while giving Itmol M Forte Syrup to your child. Give it orally, preferably at a fixed time.

In case your child develops these side effects, do not worry as these are mostly temporary and resolve on their own. But, if these effects persist or become bothersome for your child, do consult your child’s doctor on a priority basis.
