Soventus Jr Syrup can be taken with or without food as directed by your doctor. Take it every day at the same time for the ease of remembering. Your doctor will determine the dose and duration of treatment depending on the severity of your health condition. Avoid discontinuation of this medicine without consulting your doctor as your symptoms may reappear. Soventus Jr Syrup is not recommended if you are allergic to it.
