How it works
Cledomox 400mg/5ml/57mg/5ml 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.

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 require antibiotic treatment. Normal symptoms during a common cold often last 7-10 days, with thickened and colored mucus being common.

Call your child's doctor immediately if they experience serious allergic reactions, gastrointestinal infections, or liver damage, as these are rare but potentially life-threatening side effects.
