How it works
Bravoclav 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

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Bravoclav Dry Syrup?
Bravoclav Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. It is important to inform your child's healthcare provider about all other medications they are taking before starting Bravoclav Dry Syrup. Additionally, please consult your child's healthcare provider before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Bravoclav Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics typically do not interfere with the vaccine ingredients or cause a negative reaction in children who have recently received a vaccination. However, it's essential to wait until your child recovers from their illness before administering a vaccine. Once your child feels better, they can be vaccinated.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Bravoclav Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
With prolonged therapy, the doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to assess your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Bravoclav Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher than recommended dosage of this medication may increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, please consult their healthcare provider for reevaluation.
Can I stop giving Bravoclav Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue this medication unless the full course of treatment is complete. Even if you feel better, continue administering the medication for the prescribed duration as it may still be providing beneficial effects.
Can Bravoclav Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Bravoclav Dry Syrup can potentially cause diarrhea. This is due to its antibiotic nature, which eliminates harmful bacteria. Additionally, the medication might affect the good bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea. If diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration such as reduced urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, consult your healthcare provider.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Typically, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. In fact, administering antibiotics during a viral infection can increase the risk of side effects. Therefore, only use antibiotics after consulting your child's healthcare provider.
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 automatically indicate the need for antibiotics. During a common cold, mucus thickens and changes color from clear to yellow or green as symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Call your child's healthcare provider immediately if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rash), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects, although rare, are critical and require professional assistance.
