Clamozen 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.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Clamozen Dry Syrup?
Clamozen Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. It's important to inform your child’s doctor about all other medicines they are taking before starting Clamozen Dry Syrup. You should also check with your child’s healthcare provider before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Clamozen Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally don't interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a negative reaction in children recently vaccinated. However, children should avoid receiving vaccinations until their illness is fully resolved. Once your child recovers from the illness, they can receive the vaccine.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Clamozen Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Periodically, during long-term treatment with Clamozen Dry Syrup, the doctor may perform kidney and liver function tests to monitor your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Clamozen Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher dose of this medication can significantly increase the risk of side effects. If you observe an escalation of symptoms in your child, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Clamozen Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not stop using this medication until the full course of treatment is complete, even if you feel better. Symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured. Therefore, continue taking the medicine as prescribed for the recommended duration.
Can the use of Clamozen Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Clamozen Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic nature. It can also disrupt the balance of bacteria in your child’s gut and lead to diarrhea. Encourage your child to consume fluids like water when experiencing diarrhea. If diarrhea persists or shows signs of dehydration (like infrequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine), consult your doctor before administering any other medication.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral common colds don't naturally lead to a bacterial infection. In fact, using antibiotics in cases of viral infection can increase the risk of side effects. Consult your child's doctor before using antibiotics.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
A change in nasal mucus color (from clear to yellow or green) does not necessarily indicate a bacterial infection in a common cold. Yellow or green mucus is often a normal response during the recovery process from a cold and can last for several days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Call your child’s doctor immediately if they experience severe allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rash), gastrointestinal issues like prolonged diarrhea or vomiting, and liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). While these situations are rare, they require professional medical care.
