Introduction
Amidox CV Dry Syrup is an effective antibiotic medicine designed to combat bacterial infections in multiple areas such as the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. It is particularly useful in treating bacteria that have developed resistance to other treatments, including certain types of tuberculosis. While it is generally safe, it is important to complete the full course of the medication to prevent the bacteria from multiplying or becoming resistant. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting or stopping this medication.
Directions for Use
Administer the prescribed dose of Amidox CV Dry Syrup to your child as directed by the doctor. Ensure the full course is completed even if symptoms improve.
How it works
Amidox CV Dry Syrup contains two active agents: amoxycillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxycillin prevents the formation of the bacterial cell wall, which is essential for bacterial survival. Clavulanic acid inhibits beta-lactamase, an enzyme produced by resistant bacteria, making this combination effective against various infections.
Quick Tips
Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again, become resistant, or cause another infection. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after taking Amidox CV Dry Syrup. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Never give Amidox CV Dry Syrup unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not share your child’s medicine with anyone else, even if they show similar symptoms. Do not use Amidox CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. It cannot be said whether the same medicine will work on future infections. Check the expiry date before giving Amidox CV Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all expired medicines. Stop Amidox CV Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be taken with Amidox CV Dry Syrup?
It is essential to inform your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Amidox CV Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any other medicine to your child.
Can my child receive vaccinations while taking Amidox CV Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics usually do not interact with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is recommended to wait until your child has recovered from the illness before receiving a vaccine.
What lab tests may my child undergo while taking Amidox CV Dry Syrup for an extended period?
During prolonged therapy, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to assess their condition.
Can I give my child a higher dose of Amidox CV Dry Syrup than recommended?
No, giving a higher dose of this medicine can increase the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Amidox CV Dry Syrup to my child when their symptoms improve?
No, do not stop giving this medicine to your child unless the full course of treatment is complete, even if their symptoms improve. The infection may not be fully cured, and continuing the medicine may still be beneficial.
Can Amidox CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Amidox CV Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea. This is because the medicine kills harmful bacteria, which can also affect the helpful bacteria in your child's stomach. If your child experiences diarrhea, encourage them to drink plenty of water or other fluids. If diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, consult your doctor. Do not give your child any other medicine without consulting a doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most of the time, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Giving antibiotics in viral infections can increase your child's risk of developing side effects. Use antibiotics only after consulting with your child's doctor.
Is yellow-green mucus in my child's nose a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not necessarily mean that antibiotics are needed. During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken up and change color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Are there any signs that indicate my child needs immediate medical attention?
You should contact your child's doctor immediately if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). Although rare, these side effects are serious and require medical attention.
