Emzor Paediatric Zinc 20mg is a high-quality mineral supplement manufactured by Emzor Pharmaceutical Industries Limited. These dispersible tablets are specifically formulated for infants and children to help manage acute and persistent diarrhea, as well as to treat zinc deficiency.
Why Zinc is Essential for Children
Zinc is a critical micronutrient for a child's health and development. Health organizations like WHO and UNICEF recommend zinc supplementation alongside Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) for the treatment of childhood diarrhea.
- Reduces Diarrhea Duration: Zinc helps shorten the length of diarrhea episodes and reduces the severity.
- Prevents Future Episodes: Continuing the 10-14 day course helps protect the child from diarrhea for up to 2-3 months after treatment.
- Boosts Immunity: Supports the immune system's ability to fight off infections.
- Supports Growth: Essential for physical growth and cognitive development in young children.
How to Use Emzor Zinc Tablets for Babies
These tablets are dispersible, making them easy for infants to swallow.
- Place one tablet in a teaspoon (approx. 5ml) of clean water or breast milk.
- Allow the tablet to dissolve completely (it dissolves rapidly).
- Give the liquid to the child immediately.
For the best results in diarrhea management, ensure the child completes the full 10-14 day course even if the symptoms stop earlier.
