How it works
Doximite-CV Dry Syrup is a combination of two medicines: Cefpodoxime Proxetil and Clavulanic Acid. Cefpodoxime Proxetil is an antibiotic that works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering which is essential for the survival of bacteria. Clavulanic Acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that reduces resistance and enhances the activity of Cefpodoxime Proxetil against bacteria.
Quick Tips
Complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again or cause another infection. Do not give Doximite-CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Stop Doximite-CV Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.
