How it works
Genmoxy DS 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. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after the intake of Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Never give Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.

Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup?
Generally, antibiotics do not interfere with vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it's crucial to ensure your child recovers from their illness before getting the vaccine. Once they feel better, you can administer the vaccine as directed by a healthcare professional.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Periodic monitoring of kidney and liver function tests is often recommended for prolonged use of Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup to assess the child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving more than the prescribed dosage of this medication can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, consult with your doctor for reassessment.
Can I stop giving Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue treatment with this medication until the full course of prescribed therapy has been completed. Even if you feel better, it's important to continue taking the medicine for the entire duration, as it may still be providing benefit.
Can the use of Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Genmoxy DS Dry Syrup can lead to diarrhea. It's an antibiotic that targets harmful bacteria. Additionally, this medication may affect the beneficial bacteria in your child's gut, contributing to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink fluids like water or other non-sugary drinks. If diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration (such as reduced urine frequency with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine), seek medical advice immediately.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral colds do not lead to secondary bacterial infections. In fact, antibiotics are unnecessary in treating viral infections. Only use antibiotics after consulting a healthcare professional and only when directed by them.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green discharge from the nose doesn't necessarily indicate a bacterial infection. During a typical cold, mucus often thickens and changes color from clear to yellow or green. Most symptoms resolve within 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences severe allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rash), gastrointestinal complications (diarrhea), or signs of liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These are rare but serious side effects and require expert medical intervention.
