Switch from Unasyn tablets to Augmentin liquid for infections.
My son 5 years old has 2 bacterial infections confirmed. H influenzae and staphylococcus aureus. The pediatrician we saw has given him tablets called unasyn 1 tablet 3 times a day. Our problem is that he is sicking the tablet up because he's never had tablets before. We have some other antibiotics at home called augmentin 400/57/5ml in liquid form. Are we able to transfer over to the augmentin liquid or will this not kill the bacterial infections he has.

Answered on 27th June '24
Your worry about your child not taking tablets is understandable. H. influenzae and Staphylococcus aureus often infect kids. Augmentin liquid treats these bacteria too. Since you have it at home, the liquid form may suit your son better than tablets. Follow your pediatrician's dosage guide carefully. Complete the full course to eliminate the germs. If new symptoms appear or you have doubts, promptly consult your pediatrician.
