Avlosef 100ml Syrup contains Cephradine as the active ingredient. It is available as a powder for suspension, which needs to be reconstituted with water before use. The strength of the syrup is usually 125mg/5ml or 250mg/5ml, so you should check the specific packaging of your Avlosef 100ml syrup to confirm the exact strength.

Indications:

Avlosef (Cephradine) is a broad-spectrum bactericidal antibiotic used to treat infections caused by susceptible Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including:

• Respiratory tract infections: Pharyngitis, sinusitis, otitis media, tonsillitis, laryngotracheobronchitis, acute and chronic bronchitis, lobar and bronchopneumonia. 
• Urinary tract infections:Cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, prostatitis, epididymitis. 
• Skin and soft tissue infections:Abscess, cellulitis, furunculosis, impetigo.  
• Gastrointestinal tract infections:Bacillary dysentery, enteritis, peritonitis.  
• Prophylaxis of infections during surgical procedures.  

Dosage and Administration:

The dosage of Avlosef syrup depends on the age, weight, severity of the infection, and the specific strength of the reconstituted suspension (125mg/5ml or 250mg/5ml). Always follow the doctor's prescription carefully.

General dosage guidelines:

• Adults: The usual dose ranges from 250mg to 1g every 6 to 12 hours, depending on the infection type and severity.
• Children (over 9 months): The usual dose is 25 to 50mg/kg/day, divided into two to four equal doses. For otitis media, the dose may be 75 to 100mg/kg/day in divided doses every 6 to 12 hours, with a maximum daily dose of 4g. 

For Avlosef 100ml syrup, the volume to be administered will be calculated based on the child's weight and the syrup's strength. For example, if the syrup strength is 125mg/5ml and the prescribed dose is 25mg/kg/day given twice daily for a child weighing 10kg:

• Total daily dose: 25mg/kg/day * 10kg = 250mg/day
• Dose per administration (twice daily): 250mg/day / 2 = 125mg per dose
• Volume per dose (for 125mg/5ml syrup): (125mg / 125mg) * 5ml = 5ml per dose

Therefore, the child would take 5ml of Avlosef 125mg/5ml syrup twice daily.

For Avlosef DS (Double Strength) 250mg/5ml syrup, the volume would be half of the above example.

It is essential to consult the prescribing doctor for the exact dosage and administration instructions for your specific situation.

Side Effects:

Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.Hypersensitivity reactions like skin rashes may also occur. 

Precautions:

• Inform your doctor if you have any allergies, especially to cephalosporins or penicillins.
• Use with caution in patients with kidney problems, and dosage adjustments may be necessary.
• Cephradine can interfere with certain urine glucose tests (Benedict's or Fehling's solutions).
