How it works
Brismox 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.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Brismox CV Dry Syrup?
Brismox CV Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Before starting Brismox CV Dry Syrup, consult your child's doctor and inform them of any other medications they are currently taking. Additionally, it is essential to seek medical guidance from a healthcare professional before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Brismox CV Dry Syrup?
Generally, antibiotics do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines and won't cause adverse reactions in children who have just been vaccinated. However, it is advisable to postpone vaccination until after recovery from illness until your child feels better. Once your child feels recovered, you can schedule the vaccine. Always consult with a healthcare professional before administering any medication.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Brismox CV Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy, your doctor may periodically monitor kidney and liver function tests to assess your child's overall health. These tests will help identify any potential changes or complications associated with the treatment.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Brismox CV Dry Syrup to my child?
No, exceeding the recommended dosage of this medication can increase risks of side effects. If your child experiences a worsening of symptoms, consult their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Brismox CV Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, you must continue giving this medication according to the prescribed course even after your child's symptoms improve. It is possible for symptoms to subside before the infection has fully cleared. Therefore, please follow the full course of treatment as prescribed by your doctor.
Can the use of Brismox CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Brismox CV Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. It is an antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria and may also affect the beneficial bacteria in your child's gut, leading to diarrhea. Ensure your child drinks plenty of fluids in case of diarrhea. If diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration such as less frequent urination with dark-colored, strong-smelling urine, contact a doctor before administering any other medication.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Generally, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. In fact, using antibiotics in viral infections can increase your child's risk of developing side effects. Consult your child's doctor before administering any medication.
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 mean that antibiotics are necessary during a common cold. During a typical cold, the mucus changes from clear to yellow or green as part of the expected process. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days. If you notice any signs of serious complications such as difficulty breathing, severe rash, abdominal pain, vomiting, etc., please contact your child's doctor immediately.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Call your child's doctor immediately if you see signs of a serious allergic reaction (difficulty breathing, skin rash), gastrointestinal problems (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). It is crucial to seek immediate medical attention for these side effects as they can pose serious health risks.
