Introduction
Erifix CV 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
Erifix CV 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 Erifix CV Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Erifix CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Erifix CV Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Erifix CV Dry Syrup?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Erifix CV Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child, as Erifix CV Dry Syrup may interact with other medicines or substances.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Erifix CV Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics, including Erifix CV Dry Syrup, usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just 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 Erifix CV Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy with Erifix CV Dry Syrup, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to assess their condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Erifix CV Dry Syrup to my child?
No, giving a higher dose of Erifix CV Dry Syrup than recommended can increase the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Erifix CV Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop giving Erifix CV Dry Syrup to your child unless the full course of treatment is complete, even if symptoms improve. The infection may not be fully cured, and continuing the medicine may still be beneficial.
Can the use of Erifix CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Erifix CV Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties, which can affect the helpful bacteria in your child's stomach. If diarrhea occurs, encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids and consult your doctor if it persists or is accompanied by signs of dehydration.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most of the time, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Antibiotics should only be used after consulting with your child's doctor, as giving antibiotics in viral infections 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 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 serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects are rare but require expert attention.
