Can Rovamycine tablet be crushed or dissolved?
Good morning, my child (6 years old) was given the antibiotic ROVAMYCINE by the doctor, but the child has trouble swallowing half of the tablet. Can I dissolve the tablet in water or divide it into smaller pieces? Thank you and best regards.

To @Нигора:
Crushing tablets such as Rovamycin can lead to increased side effects.
Rovamycine is a macrolide antibiotic, and some medications should not be crushed because they can lose their properties or cause side effects.
In the case of Rovamycine, crushing the tablets may reduce the effectiveness of the medicine, but should not cause an immediate risk to the child's health. However, it is important to consult your doctor to switch the form of the drug.
Hello, I didn't know and after grinding it gave my daughter to us 6 years old, is it dangerous?

Rovamycine is a film-coated tablet, it should not be crushed, dissolved, etc. Swallow the medicine whole.
If your child is unable to swallow the tablet, you should consult your doctor to change the way you treat.
(A suspension of this substance is not currently available.)
If you do not have the opportunity to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:
