I've been prescribed Augmentin 250mg/5ml Susp 150ml for my child's ear infection, and I'm a bit worried about the possible side effects. The leaflet lists a whole bunch of serious ones, like allergic reactions and liver problems. Has anyone else given this to their kids? Did you experience any issues? I'm particularly concerned about the diarrhea side effect, as I've heard horror stories about C. diff. I just want to make sure I'm not overreacting. Should I be worried, or is this just standard stuff for antibiotics?

My daughter has just been prescribed Skytrofa 3.6mg Inj Cartridge to help with her growth. The doctor mentioned some serious side effects, and I'm a bit overwhelmed. Has anyone else used this medication? I'd love to hear about your experiences, especially with the side effects. How did you handle them? What should I watch out for? I want to make sure I'm prepared for anything that might come up.
