Solonex Dt 100mg Strip Of 10 Tablets

Solonex DT is used cautiously in pregnancy to treat active tuberculosis infection. The medicine crosses the placenta (a pathway between the mother and the growing baby), and hence the newborn should be closely monitored for side effects if the mother has been prescribed the same. However, preventive treatment for tuberculosis should only be started after the female delivers to avoid the risk of exposure to the developing baby. There are no adequate studies and research about the effects of the medicine in pregnant females. Consult your doctor if you’re pregnant before starting the medicine.

Nursing mothers can continue to breastfeed while on Solonex DT. Studies suggest that it gets excreted in breast milk in small quantities and does not produce any harmful effects in the newborn. The doctor should be informed if you are a nursing mother before starting it.

Solonex Dt can affect your driving ability; avoid driving if you are experiencing dizziness or visual difficulties.

Alcohol should not be consumed if you are on Solonex DT. The use of alcohol and Solonex DT increases the risk of liver damage. Consult your doctor for more details.

Solonex DT is an anti-tubercular medicine. Tuberculosis is an infection of the lung caused by bacteria called mycobacterium tuberculosis. Medicine forms an essential component of all tuberculosis treatment regimens. It treats both active and latent tuberculosis infections. Your doctor can only start it. The possible long term side effects are tingling and numbness of hands and feet, jaundice, nausea and vomiting. If you develop fits(seizures) or visual disturbances, or rashes with swelling of the face, stop the medicine immediately and consult your doctor.

Yellowing of your eyes is probably due to jaundice which is a side effect of this medicine. The medicine should be continued for the duration prescribed by your doctor to prevent the development of resistance (Tuberculosis infection becomes difficult to treat in the future if the entire course of medicine is not completed). Jaundice, loss of appetite and tingling sensation of palms and soles are some of the common side effects of this medicine which should not let you stop the medicine. Consult your doctor for more information and evaluation of jaundice.

If the sputum(cough) tests and chest X-ray are suggestive of tuberculosis infection as diagnosed by the doctor, the child needs to be started on anti-tubercular medicine immediately.

Consult your doctor for more information.
