Heraclene Side Effects

it for my son ## Heraclene contains the active ingredient Dibencozide. It is used to increase appetite. This medication is from the Philippines.

My 6 year old was advised by the doctor to take the heraclene 1 mg capsule twice a day. Is this good for my son?

i am fixing to give this heraclene dibencozide for my 2 1/2 yr old son because he is not eating enought and always no apetite ...Is there any side effects for using this medecine ? ## Has your doctor instructed you to use this? Children generally go through phases, where they have less appetite, for awhile and then their appetites will suddenly increase, for a period of time, just before a growth spurt. This is completely normal and you really shouldn't worry about it, unless he is severely underweight for his age and size. Dibencozide, also known as Cobamamide, is an active form of Vitamin B12, so it is not an actual medication, it is a nutritional supplement.

what is the effect of a 6 yrs old child drank 13 caps of heraclene 3mg ## Too much of anything is dangerous and if you are afraid that someone may be in danger, you should always contact a doctor or your nearest emergency treatment center immediately. This is a form of Vitamin B12 and yes, even though it is a vitamin, taking too much of it can have serious consequences. These could manifest as: diarrhea, hives, skin rash, trouble breathing and heart palpitations. In many cases, they will disappear as the medication is processed out of the body and there are no serious, long-term effects. However, if you see any signs of these lasting for a prolonged period of time or any unusual behavior, then they need medical attention. Are there any questions or comments?

red capsule ## i really need updates here for our reqts ## This medication is unavailable in the U.S. and I am sorry to say that other countries do not regulate their prescription drugs as strictly as the FDA does. That said, finding information on them is very difficult, since there are no databases which list them all, like there are for U.S. prescription drugs. The only thing I can suggest is that you try asking your doctor or pharmacist for more information. ## thanks ## whoew why i cant find drugs like this? i really need it badly for my grades... ## i need to know the classification, mechanism of action, indication, contraindication,adverse effects, nsg responsibility of this drug... please... ## Is there any side effects of Heraclene Dibencozide?
