Introduction

Clavam Dry Syrup is an effective antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. It is particularly useful for infections in the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. This medicine is capable of killing bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies, making it a valuable option for treating resistant tuberculosis. It is important to complete the entire course of antibiotics to prevent the bacteria from multiplying again or becoming resistant. Common side effects may include a bitter taste in the mouth, and in rare cases, an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Always consult a doctor before using this medicine.

Administer Clavam Dry Syrup as prescribed by your doctor. Ensure your child completes the entire course of antibiotics. Do not use this medicine to treat viral infections such as the common cold or flu.

Clavam Dry Syrup contains 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. Clavulanic acid inhibits an enzyme (beta-lactamase) produced by resistant bacteria, making the combination effective against many types of infections.

Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again, become resistant, or cause another infection. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after taking Clavam Dry Syrup. 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 Clavam Dry Syrup unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not share your child’s medicine with anyone else, even if they show similar symptoms. Do not use Clavam Dry Syrup 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 the expiry date before giving Clavam Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all expired medicines. Stop Clavam Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.
