Introduction
Amolox-CV Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. It is capable of killing bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies and thus also helps treat tuberculosis that is resistant to other treatments.
Directions for Use
Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again or cause another infection.
How it works
Amolox-CV Dry Syrup is an antibiotic. It has two active agents amoxycillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxycillin works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) essential for the survival of the bacteria. Whereas clavulanic acid serves a special purpose of inhibiting an enzyme (beta-lactamase) that is produced by resistant bacteria. This makes the combination of amoxycillin and clavulanic acid an effective line of treatment for many types of infections.
Quick Tips
Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again or cause another infection. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after the intake of Amolox-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 Amolox-CV Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Amolox-CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Amolox-CV Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Amolox-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
What happens when other medicines are given at the same time as Amolox-CV Dry Syrup?
Amolox-CV Dry Syrup can interact with other medicines or substances. Inform your doctor about any other medications your child is taking before starting Amolox-CV Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before administering any other medicine to your child.
Can my child get vaccinated while on treatment with Amolox-CV Dry Syrup?
Typically, antibiotics do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should wait until they recover from the illness before receiving a vaccine. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
What lab tests may my child undergo while taking Amolox-CV Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy, the doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to keep track of your child's condition.
Is it safe to give a higher than recommended dose of Amolox-CV Dry Syrup to my child?
No, administering a higher than recommended dose of this medication can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences increased severity of symptoms, please consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Amolox-CV Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue giving this medicine to your child unless the full course of treatment is complete, even if you feel better. The symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured. Continue administering the medication for the prescribed duration as it may still be showing beneficial effects.
Can Amolox-CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Amolox-CV Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. As an antibiotic, it kills harmful bacteria and may also affect helpful bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water or other fluids. If diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as less frequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, consult a doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Mostly, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics for viral infections can increase your child's risk of developing side effects. Therefore, use antibiotics only after consulting with your child's doctor.
What does yellow-green mucus in my child's nose indicate?
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 from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
When should I seek immediate medical attention for my child?
Call your child's doctor right away if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), and liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). Although rare, these side effects are serious and require prompt medical attention.
