How it works
Clavbon Forte 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 Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup?
It's essential to inform your doctor about any other medications your child is taking before starting Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with their doctor before giving any new medicine to your child to avoid potential interactions.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics like Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup usually do not interfere with vaccines or cause a bad reaction in children who have just been vaccinated. However, it's recommended to wait until your child has recovered from their illness before getting vaccinated.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Your doctor may periodically monitor kidney and liver function tests during prolonged therapy with Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup to ensure your child's condition remains stable.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher dose of Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup can increase the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, consult with their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not stop giving Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup unless the full course of treatment is complete, even if your child's symptoms have improved. This ensures the infection is fully cured and prevents relapse.
Can the use of Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Clavbon Forte Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties, which can disrupt beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids and consult with their doctor if diarrhea persists or is accompanied by signs of dehydration.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Mostly, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Antibiotics should only be used after consulting with your child's doctor to avoid unnecessary side effects.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus does not necessarily indicate the need for antibiotics, as this is a common symptom during a cold that can last 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects are rare but require prompt expert care.
