How it works
Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet 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.

Can other medicines be taken with Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child, as Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet may interact with other medicines or substances.
Can my child receive vaccinations while taking Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not receive vaccinations until they have recovered from the illness. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
What lab tests may my child undergo while taking Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet for an extended period?
During prolonged therapy, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to monitor their condition.
Can I give my child a higher dose of Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet than recommended?
No, giving a higher dose of this medicine can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences increased symptom severity, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet to my child when their symptoms improve?
No, do not stop giving this medicine to your child unless the full course of treatment is complete, even if you feel better. The symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured. Continue giving the medicine for the prescribed duration, as it may still be showing beneficial effects.
Can Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet cause diarrhea?
Yes, Esmox CV 200mg/28.5mg Tablet may cause diarrhea. This antibiotic kills harmful bacteria, but it may also affect the helpful bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. If your child experiences diarrhea, encourage them to drink plenty of water or other fluids. Consult your doctor if diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as less frequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine. Do not give any other medicine to your child without consulting a doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most of the time, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Giving antibiotics in viral infections can increase your child's risk of developing side effects. Use antibiotics only after consulting with your child's doctor.
Is yellow-green mucus in my child's nose a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not necessarily mean that antibiotics are needed. During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken up and change from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Are there any signs that indicate my child needs immediate medical attention?
You must call your child's doctor immediately if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). Although rare, these side effects are serious and require medical attention.
