Introduction
CV M Syrup 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. It contains two active agents, amoxycillin and clavulanic acid, which work together to prevent the formation of the bacterial protective covering and inhibit an enzyme produced by resistant bacteria. This combination makes it an effective treatment for many types of infections.
Directions for Use
Use CV M Syrup as prescribed by your doctor. Ensure your child completes the entire course of antibiotics to prevent the bacteria from multiplying again or becoming resistant.
How it works
CV M Syrup contains amoxycillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxycillin prevents 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.
Quick Tips
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 the intake of CV M 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 CV M Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. You must also never share your child’s medicine with anyone else even if they show similar symptoms. Do not give CV M 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 ‘expiry’ before giving CV M Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop CV M Syrup 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 CV M Syrup?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting CV M Syrup. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child, as CV M Syrup may interact with other substances.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with CV M Syrup?
Antibiotics like CV M Syrup usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is recommended to wait until your child has recovered from the illness before getting vaccinated.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking CV M Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy with CV M Syrup, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to ensure your child's condition remains stable.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of CV M Syrup to my child?
No, giving a higher dose of CV M Syrup than recommended can increase the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation and guidance.
Can I stop giving CV M Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, it is crucial to complete the full course of treatment with CV M Syrup, even if your child's symptoms improve before the infection is fully cured. Stopping the medicine prematurely may lead to incomplete treatment and potential complications.
Can the use of CV M Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, CV M Syrup may cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties, which can disrupt the balance of helpful bacteria in your child's stomach. If your child experiences diarrhea, ensure they drink plenty of water or other fluids. If diarrhea persists or is accompanied by signs of dehydration, consult your doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
No, most viral infections do not lead to bacterial infections. Antibiotics should only be used under the guidance of a doctor, as they can increase the risk of side effects and antibiotic resistance.
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, it is normal for mucus to thicken and change color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences severe allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects are rare but require prompt medical attention.
