How it works
Delpoclav DS Suspension Vanilla 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 Delpoclav DS Suspension Vanilla. 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 Delpoclav DS Suspension Vanilla until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Delpoclav DS Suspension Vanilla to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses.

Can I stop giving Delpoclav DS Suspension Vanilla to my child when the symptoms are relieved?

Consult your doctor before stopping the medicine.
Can the use of Delpoclav DS Suspension Vanilla cause diarrhea?
Yes, Delpoclav DS Suspension Vanilla can cause diarrhea as it is an antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria. It may also affect the beneficial bacteria in your child’s stomach and lead to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water or other fluids if they experience diarrhea. If diarrhea persists, discuss it with your doctor. Do not give any other medication without consulting a healthcare professional.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral common colds do not lead to secondary bacterial infections. While antibiotics are usually unnecessary for viral infections, consult with your child's doctor before administering them if you have any concerns.
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 is not necessarily a sign of a bacterial infection. This color change can be normal during a common cold and often occurs as mucus thickens. Most symptoms will 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 severe allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (severe diarrhea), or signs of liver damage (weakness, pale appearance, vomiting).
