Introduction
Finemox 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
Finemox 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 Finemox CV Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Finemox CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Finemox 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 Finemox CV Dry Syrup?
Finemox CV Dry Syrup may interact with other medicines or substances. It is important to tell your child's doctor about any other medications they are taking before starting Finemox CV Dry Syrup. Always check with your child’s doctor before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Finemox CV Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause adverse reactions. However, it is advisable to hold off on vaccination until your child fully recovers from any illness. Once they feel better, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Finemox CV Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
If treatment with Finemox CV Dry Syrup is long-term, periodic monitoring of kidney and liver function is recommended. This helps to assess the patient’s condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Finemox CV Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving an increased dose of this medication may increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, consult with their doctor for reassessment. Do not change the dose or stop treatment without first consulting a doctor.
Can I stop giving Finemox CV Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop giving this medication unless the entire course of treatment is complete. Even if you feel better, the symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured. Therefore, continue the prescribed duration as it might still be beneficial.
Can the use of Finemox CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Finemox CV Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. It is an antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria. Moreover, the medicine may affect the good bacteria in your child’s stomach, leading to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea. Seek medical advice from your doctor if the diarrhea persists and you notice any signs of dehydration (reduced urine output, dark-colored or strong-smelling urine). Do not administer any other medication without consulting a doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most cases of viral colds do not develop secondary bacterial infections. Additionally, giving antibiotics to a viral infection can increase the risk of side effects. Use antibiotics only after consulting your child’s doctor.
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 a bacterial infection. During a common cold, mucus can thicken and change color (from clear to yellow or green). Symptoms often resolve within 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
In case of serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea) and liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting), seek immediate medical attention. While rare, these are potentially life-threatening side effects that require urgent expert intervention.
