Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as AM CV DS Dry Syrup?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting AM CV DS Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child to ensure safe and effective treatment.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with AM CV DS Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics like AM CV DS Dry Syrup usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just been vaccinated. However, it is recommended to wait until your child has recovered from the illness before getting vaccinated.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking AM CV DS Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to closely monitor their condition and adjust treatment as needed.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of AM CV DS Dry Syrup to my child?
No, it is not recommended to give a higher dose of AM CV DS Dry Syrup than the recommended dose, as this can increase the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation and guidance.
Can I stop giving AM CV DS Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, it is crucial to complete the full course of treatment with AM CV DS Dry Syrup, even if your child's symptoms improve before the infection is fully cured. Stopping treatment prematurely may lead to treatment failure and the risk of developing antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Can the use of AM CV DS Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, AM CV DS Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea as it kills harmful bacteria. Additionally, the medicine may affect the helpful bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. If your child experiences diarrhea, encourage them to drink plenty of fluids and consult your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
No, most of the time, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Giving antibiotics in viral infections can increase the risk of side effects. Always consult your child's doctor before using antibiotics.
The mucus coming out of my child's nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not necessarily indicate the need for antibiotics. During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken and change color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects are rare but serious and require expert attention.
