Can you take Segosana once a day? My son started vomiting and his stomach hurts, is it the effect of the flu or the medicine?

According to the manufacturer's recommendations, the recommended oral dose for the treatment of influenza is one tablet twice a day for 5 days. For prophylaxis, after exposure to the virus, the recommended dose is 1 tablet once a day for 10 days. If you are talking about flu treatment and your doctor has recommended dosing the drug twice a day, you should stick to his recommendations for the therapy to be effective. Vomiting, abdominal pain or nausea can be both a side effect of the drug and flu symptoms, especially in children. To help reduce the discomfort, if they are related to the drug, you can administer the drug after eating a meal (food does not affect the absorption of the drug). If this does not help, it is worth consulting the situation with a doctor, who may recommend a different therapeutic procedure.

If necessary, you can make an appointment for a teleconsultation here:
