Introduction
Eeclav Dry 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.
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
Eeclav 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.
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. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Never give Eeclav Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Eeclav Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Eeclav Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Eeclav Dry Syrup?
Eeclav Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Tell your child's doctor about all medications they are taking before starting Eeclav Dry Syrup. Consult their doctor before giving any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Eeclav Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a negative reaction in a child recently vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should wait until they recover from the illness before getting vaccinated. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Eeclav Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
With prolonged treatment, regular checkups for kidney and liver function are necessary to monitor your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Eeclav Dry Syrup to my child?
No. Taking a higher dose of this medicine may increase side effects. If you see increased severity, contact your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Eeclav Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No. Do not stop giving this medicine unless the full course of treatment is complete. Even if you feel better, continue the medication for its intended duration. Symptoms might improve before complete infection cure, so it's essential to complete the prescribed course.
Can the use of Eeclav Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Eeclav Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. It is an antibiotic that fights bacteria. Additionally, the medicine can affect the beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach and lead to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if experiencing diarrhea. If diarrhea persists or you notice signs of dehydration (e.g., less frequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine), consult your doctor before administering any other medications.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral common colds do not lead to secondary bacterial infections. However, antibiotics should only be used after consulting with your child's doctor as they can increase the risk of side effects.
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 always mean antibiotics are needed. During a common cold, it's normal for mucus to thicken and change color (from clear to yellow or green). Symptoms usually last 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical help if your child experiences severe allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea) or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These rare side effects are serious and require expert care.
