How it works
Hibrid 228.5 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.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup?
Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. It's crucial to inform your child's doctor about all other medications they are taking before starting this medication. Additionally, consult a healthcare professional before administering any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup?
Generally, antibiotics do not interfere with the components of vaccines or trigger adverse reactions in a child who has recently received one. However, children undergoing antibiotic therapy should avoid vaccination until recovery from the underlying illness. Once the child feels better, they can be vaccinated.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During extended therapy, your doctor might regularly monitor kidney and liver function tests to assess your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup to my child?
No, giving a higher dose of this medication can increase the risks of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, contact their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue this medication until the complete course of treatment is finished, even if you notice improvement. Symptoms might appear better before the infection fully resolves. Therefore, continue the prescribed dosage for the entirety of the course.
Can the use of Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Hibrid 228.5 Dry Syrup might induce diarrhea. It's a medication that eliminates harmful bacteria. Moreover, this medicine may also affect the good bacteria in your child’s digestive tract and lead to diarrhea. In case of diarrhea, encourage them to drink plenty of fluids. If symptoms persist, talk to their doctor about any concerns regarding dehydration (e.g., reduced urination, dark-colored urine with a strong odor).
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most often, bacterial infections do not occur alongside viral ones. In fact, giving antibiotics in viral infections can increase the risk of side effects. Therefore, only use antibiotics after consulting a 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 from the nose does not necessarily indicate a bacterial infection, and antibiotics are rarely necessary for this. It's common during a cold; the mucus changes in consistency as the disease progresses.
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 rashes), gastrointestinal distress (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). While rare, these serious side effects necessitate expert medical care.
