Introduction
C Moxy LB Syrup is an antibiotic that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract in children. It can kill the bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies and has a lesser chance of causing side effects like diarrhea.
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
C Moxy LB Syrup is an antibiotic. It has three active agents: Amoxycillin, clavulanic acid, and lactobacillus. Amoxycillin works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) which is essential for the survival of the bacteria. Clavulanic acid serves the special purpose of inhibiting an enzyme (beta-lactamase) that is produced by resistant bacteria. While these two medicines treat your child's infection, they may upset your child's digestive system by killing healthy gut bacteria due to the prolonged intake of this medicine. The third agent, lactobacillus, helps prevent side effects such as diarrhea by restoring the balance of healthy bacteria in your child's gut.
Quick Tips
Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after the intake of C Moxy LB Syrup. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help. Never share your child's medicine with anyone else even if they show similar symptoms. Never self-medicate at home. Always consult the doctor before giving any medicine to your child. Do not give C Moxy LB Syrup to treat the 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. Stop C Moxy LB 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 I give a higher dose of C Moxy LB Syrup to my child?
No, it's not recommended to give a higher dose of C Moxy LB Syrup to your child, as it can increase the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as C Moxy LB Syrup?
It's essential to inform your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting C Moxy LB Syrup. Additionally, consult your child's doctor before giving any other medicine to your child, as C Moxy LB Syrup may interact with other substances.
Can I stop giving C Moxy LB Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop giving C Moxy LB Syrup 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 giving the medicine for the recommended duration to ensure the infection is completely cleared.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with C Moxy LB Syrup?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just been vaccinated. However, it's recommended to wait until your child has recovered from the illness before getting vaccinated. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking C Moxy LB Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to ensure their condition remains stable.
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 indicate the need for antibiotics. During a common cold, it's normal for mucus to thicken and change color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days, and antibiotics are usually not necessary.
