Introduction
Greenmox CV Oral Suspension 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
Greenmox CV Oral Suspension 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 Greenmox CV Oral Suspension until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Never share your child’s medicine with anyone else even if they show similar symptoms. Do not give Greenmox CV Oral Suspension 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. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Greenmox CV Oral Suspension to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Greenmox CV Oral Suspension immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be taken with Greenmox CV Oral Suspension?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Greenmox CV Oral Suspension. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child, as Greenmox CV Oral Suspension can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances.
Can my child receive vaccinations while taking Greenmox CV Oral Suspension?
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 Greenmox CV Oral Suspension 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 Greenmox CV Oral Suspension than recommended?
No, giving a higher dose of this medicine than recommended can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences increased severity of symptoms, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Greenmox CV Oral Suspension 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 completely cured. Continue giving the medicine for the recommended duration, as it may still be showing beneficial effects.
Can Greenmox CV Oral Suspension cause diarrhea?
Yes, Greenmox CV Oral Suspension may cause diarrhea. This antibiotic kills harmful bacteria, and 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. If diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as less frequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, consult your doctor. 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 expert attention.
