Introduction
G-Mox Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine with versatile actions. It can treat a multitude of bacterial infections including those of the ears, eyes, nose, sinus, tonsils, tooth, throat, lungs, skin, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tract. It may also be effective against peptic ulcer disease.
Directions for Use
Complete the entire course of antibiotics without stopping the medicine in between. Doing so may cause the bacteria to multiply again. Make sure your child drinks plenty of water if they develop diarrhea as a side effect.
How it works
G-Mox Dry Syrup is an antibiotic. It works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) which is essential for the survival of the bacteria. By doing so, this medicine kills the infection-causing bacteria and prevents the infection from spreading without making them resistant to further treatment.
Quick Tips
Complete the entire course of antibiotics without stopping the medicine in between. Make sure your child drinks plenty of water if they develop diarrhea as a side effect. Conditions like common cold and flu are caused by viruses. Never use this medicine for such conditions. Give G-Mox Dry Syrup to your child only for their current infection. Stop this medicine and immediately report to your child's doctor in case your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties while taking this medicine. Finish the prescribed course even if you start to feel better. Diarrhea may occur as a side effect. Taking probiotics along with G-Mox Dry Syrup may help. Stop taking this medicine and inform your doctor immediately if you develop an itchy rash, swelling of the face, throat or tongue or breathing difficulties while taking it.

Frequently asked questions
Can I give G-Mox Dry Syrup to my child repeatedly for a long time?
Giving your child G-Mox Dry Syrup for extended periods can increase the risk of fungal infections (oral thrush) and severe gastrointestinal infections (superinfections). It's crucial not to alter the dosage or duration of treatment without consulting their doctor. Additionally, regular use or misuse might lead to antibiotic resistance in bacteria.
Are there any possible serious side effects of G-Mox Dry Syrup?
Although rare, G-Mox Dry Syrup can cause some significant side effects such as persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergic reactions (including skin rash), diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. Always consult your child's doctor if any of these symptoms occur.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as G-Mox Dry Syrup?
G-Mox Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Before starting G-Mox Dry Syrup, discuss all other medications your child is taking with their doctor to avoid potential interactions. Always consult a healthcare professional before administering any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with G-Mox Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children after vaccination. However, it is best to delay vaccinating until your child fully recovers from the illness. Once symptoms improve, the vaccine can be administered as per your doctor’s advice.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
In common colds, mucus color changes and thickens over time, but this does not automatically mean the child needs antibiotics. Typical cold symptoms typically last 7-10 days. If they don't clear up within this timeframe, contact your child's doctor for guidance.

Can G-Mox Dry Syrup cause allergic reactions?
