Introduction
Havmox CV Kid 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.

How it works
Havmox CV Kid 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 Havmox CV Kid 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 Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup 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 given at the same time as Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup?
Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. It is important to inform your child's doctor about all medications they are taking before starting this medication. Additionally, it is crucial to consult a healthcare professional before administering any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is best to avoid giving any medications to a child who is sick before they recover from the illness. Once your child feels better, they can be given the vaccine.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Periodically, the doctor may order kidney and liver function tests to monitor your child's condition when using Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup for extended periods.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher than recommended dose of this medication can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences increased symptom severity, please contact their doctor for an assessment.
Can I stop giving Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, you should not stop giving this medication without completing the full course of treatment. Even if your child appears to be feeling better, the infection may still be incompletely cured. Therefore, continue with the prescribed dosage for the entire recommended time.
Can the use of Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Havmox CV Kid Dry Syrup may trigger diarrhea. This antibiotic targets harmful bacteria and can impact the balance of good bacteria in your child's stomach. If your child experiences diarrhea, encourage them to drink plenty of fluids. For any persistent diarrhea or signs of dehydration (e.g., reduced urination, dark urine with strong odor), consult a healthcare professional before administering further medication.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral common colds do not lead to bacterial infections. Giving antibiotics in viral infections can increase the risk of side effects. Antibiotics should only be used after consulting with 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 automatically indicate a bacterial infection. This is common during a typical cold, where mucus may change color and consistency. Most viral colds have symptoms that last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
You should contact your child's doctor immediately if they experience severe allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rashes), gastrointestinal distress (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). While rare, these side effects are potentially dangerous and require expert assessment.
