Introduction
Greemox 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
Greemox 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 Greemox CV Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Greemox CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. It cannot be said whether the same medicine will work on future infections.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Greemox CV Dry Syrup?
Greemox CV Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. It is important to inform your child's doctor about all other medications and supplements being used before starting Greemox CV Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with a healthcare professional before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Greemox CV Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have just received a vaccine. However, it's recommended to delay administering any vaccine until the child recovers from their illness and the infection is fully addressed. Once your child feels better, you can proceed with vaccination.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Greemox CV Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy, a doctor might monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to ensure the child's overall health is being effectively assessed.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Greemox CV Dry Syrup to my child?
Exceeding the prescribed dose of this medicine can increase the likelihood of side effects. If your child experiences an increased severity of symptoms, it's crucial to contact their doctor for reevaluation.
Can I stop giving Greemox CV Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue Greemox CV Dry Syrup without consulting your child’s doctor. It is essential to complete the full course of treatment even if you notice symptom relief, as it may still be providing beneficial effects.
Can the use of Greemox CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Greemox CV Dry Syrup can potentially lead to diarrhea. This is because it is an antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria. In addition, the medication may also impact the beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach and contribute to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea. If the diarrhea persists or you notice signs of dehydration such as decreased urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, contact a healthcare professional before administering any other medications.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most commonly, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Administering antibiotics during a viral infection may increase the risk of adverse side effects. Always consult your child's doctor before using antibiotics.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green nasal discharge does not necessarily indicate a need for antibiotic treatment. During a common cold, mucus typically thickens and changes color from clear to yellow or green. The symptoms usually resolve within 7 to 10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
In case of serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea) and liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting), it is essential to immediately contact your child's doctor. While rare, these side effects are critical and require expert medical attention.
