Introduction
Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension 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. You can give Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension to your child with or without food. It is better to give it with food as that helps increase absorption and decrease the risk of stomach upset. The doctor may prescribe giving it two to three times a day. Medicine dose depends on the severity of the infection, its type, and your child’s body weight and age. So, stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed. If your child vomits the medicine within 30 minutes of intake, let the child calm down and repeat the dose. Do not double dose if it's the time for the next dose.

How it works
Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension 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 Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension. 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 Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension until and unless prescribed by the doctor. You must also never share your child’s medicine with anyone else even if they show similar symptoms. Do not give Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension 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 ‘expiry’ before giving Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension 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 given at the same time as Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension?
Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension may interact with other medications or substances. Before starting the medication, always inform your child's doctor about any other medications they are currently taking. It is also crucial to consult with your child’s healthcare provider before administering any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension?
Generally, antibiotics do not interfere with vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children. However, it is crucial to wait for the infection to clear before administering any vaccine until your child recovers. After recovery, the vaccine can be administered as per your doctor's recommendation.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension on a long-term basis?
If your child is on long-term therapy with Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension, your doctor may order periodic kidney and liver function tests to monitor their condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension to my child?
Giving a higher dose of Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, consult their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop giving this medication without following the complete course of treatment. Symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cleared. Continue administering the medication as prescribed by your doctor for the full duration.
Can the use of Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension cause diarrhea?
Yes, Amoxylet CV Oral Suspension can cause diarrhea. This is due to its antibiotic properties, which may kill beneficial bacteria in the stomach. Encourage your child to drink fluids like water if they experience diarrhea. If symptoms persist or if you notice signs of dehydration (such as reduced urine frequency and dark-colored, strong-smelling urine), consult your doctor for further guidance. Do not administer any other medications without consulting a healthcare provider.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most common colds are caused by viruses and do not typically lead to bacterial infections. However, using antibiotics during a viral cold is not recommended as it can increase the risk of side effects. If your doctor believes that bacterial co-infection is present, they will prescribe an appropriate antibiotic.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is this a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green nasal discharge does not automatically indicate a bacterial infection. During a common cold, the mucus typically thickens and changes from clear to yellow or green as it becomes less watery. It is normal for symptoms to last 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
In case of serious allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rash), gastrointestinal complications such as diarrhea, and liver damage (weakness, pallor, vomiting) you must immediately contact your child's doctor. It is crucial to seek prompt medical attention for these potential side effects.
