Can the use of Clavicure Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Clavicure Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. It's an antibiotic that eliminates harmful bacteria. In addition to causing diarrhea, it may also affect the beneficial bacteria in your child’s stomach and cause diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea. Consult a doctor immediately if the diarrhea persists or you notice signs of dehydration like dark-colored and strong-smelling urine and do not administer any other medication without consulting a doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?

The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?

Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
In case of serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea) and liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting) you should immediately contact your child's doctor. While these are rare, they require the attention of a medical professional.
