The daughter of 11 years recently took azicin 200mg / 5ml dose prescribed by the doctor is 8ml for 5 days. Today is 8 days since the end of the antibiotic and the child yellow-orange tongue from the very beginning of the end of treatment with this drug. Is this a side effect of this drug? Is it a liver problem?!

Yellow or yellow-orange coloration of the tongue is most likely caused by an antibiotic. The cause is abnormal exfoliation of cells and the multiplication of bacteria on the surface of the tongue. The condition does not require special treatment. As a rule, sufficient results are given by improving oral hygiene (rinses), mechanical cleansing of the tongue (special scrapers or even a toothbrush will do well), the use of p/bacterial drugs (eg Chlorquinaldin for sucking, Tantum verde / Uniben / Hascosetp aerosol).
