Neocilor 50ml (POM)

Overview

Neocilor 50ml (POM) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic oral suspension formulated to treat a wide range of bacterial infections in children and adults. It contains Chloramphenicol, a potent antimicrobial agent that effectively combats both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria responsible for respiratory tract infections, ear infections, eye infections, typhoid fever, and other systemic bacterial conditions.

As a Prescription Only Medicine (POM), Neocilor should be used under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional. It delivers fast and reliable relief from infection-related symptoms such as fever, inflammation, and discomfort by eliminating harmful bacteria from the body.

Active Ingredient and Mechanism of Action

• Chloramphenicol (per 5ml suspension):
  Neocilor works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby preventing bacteria from multiplying and spreading. This action allows the body’s immune system to destroy the remaining bacteria and promote complete recovery. Its broad antimicrobial coverage makes it effective against several serious infections that may not respond to other antibiotics.

Uses and Benefits

Neocilor 50ml is indicated for the treatment of:

• Respiratory tract infections (bronchitis, pneumonia, whooping cough)

• Ear infections (otitis media)

• Eye infections (conjunctivitis)

• Typhoid fever and other Salmonella infections

• Meningitis and septicemia caused by sensitive organisms

• Other bacterial infections as prescribed by a doctor

Key Benefits:

• Broad-spectrum antibacterial activity

• Rapid symptom relief

• Effective against resistant bacterial strains

• Suitable for children when prescribed appropriately

Dosage and Administration

Shake well before use. Take as directed by your healthcare provider. Dosage depends on age, body weight, and infection severity. The suspension can be taken with or without food, though taking it after meals may reduce stomach upset. Always complete the full course, even if symptoms improve, to prevent bacterial resistance.

Side Effects

Neocilor may cause mild side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or stomach discomfort. Rare but serious effects include allergic reactions, bone marrow suppression, or changes in blood cell counts. Seek medical attention immediately if unusual symptoms occur.

Precautions

• Use only under medical supervision.

• Avoid self-medication or premature discontinuation.

• Do not use in newborns or during pregnancy unless prescribed.

• Store in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

• Keep out of reach of children.

• Avoid using with other medicines that suppress bone marrow.
