How to Use

2.  Dosage: Administer the exact dose as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage typically depends on the patient's age, weight, and the severity of the infection. Always use the provided measuring spoon or cup for precise dosing.
3.  Administration: Cefokel Oral Suspension can be taken with or without food, as directed by your healthcare professional.
