Introduction
Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. It is capable of killing bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies and thus also helps treat tuberculosis that is resistant to other treatments.
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
Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange 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.
Quick Tips
Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again or cause another infection. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after the intake of Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange. 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 Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange?
It's essential to inform your doctor about any other medications your child is taking before starting Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange. This will help prevent potential interactions and ensure safe co-administration.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange?
Generally, antibiotics like Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange do not interfere with vaccines or cause adverse reactions. However, it's recommended to delay vaccination until the illness has resolved. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy, your doctor may periodically monitor kidney and liver function tests to ensure your child's condition remains stable.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange to my child?
No, exceeding the recommended dosage can increase the risk of side effects. If you notice increased severity of symptoms, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not discontinue treatment unless the full course is complete, even if symptoms improve. Continue administering the medication as prescribed to ensure the infection is fully cleared.
Can the use of Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange cause diarrhea?
Yes, Clavosys Dry Syrup Orange may cause diarrhea due to its effect on both harmful and beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach. If diarrhea persists, encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids and consult your doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most often, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Antibiotics should be used judiciously and only after consulting with a healthcare professional.
The mucus coming out of my child's nose is yellow-green. Is it 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, thickening and color changes are normal symptoms that often resolve within 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 symptoms are rare but require prompt medical evaluation.
