Introduction
Incamox-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
Incamox-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. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after the intake of Incamox-CV 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 Incamox-CV Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Incamox-CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Incamox-CV Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Incamox-CV 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 administered concurrently with Incamox-CV Dry Syrup?
Incamox-CV Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Please inform your healthcare provider about all medications your child is currently taking before starting treatment. It is also crucial to consult your child's doctor before administering any medicine to them.
Can vaccination be performed while on Incamox-CV Dry Syrup treatment?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is advisable to hold off on vaccinations until the child recovers from the infection. Once your child feels better, they can receive the vaccine.
What lab tests might be necessary during long-term Incamox-CV Dry Syrup therapy?
Periodic kidney and liver function tests may be required for patients on prolonged antibiotic therapy to monitor their condition.
Is it safe to administer a dosage higher than the prescribed amount of Incamox-CV Dry Syrup to my child?
No, exceeding the recommended dosage can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, please consult their doctor for reevaluation.
Can I discontinue Incamox-CV Dry Syrup when the symptoms are resolved?
No, do not stop administering this medication unless you have completed the full course of treatment. Even if you feel better, symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured. Therefore, continue taking the medicine for the entire duration as it may be providing beneficial effects.
Does Incamox-CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea in children?
Yes, Incamox-CV Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. It is an antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria. In addition to eliminating the bacterial infection, it can affect the good bacteria in your child’s stomach and trigger diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea. Contact your doctor immediately if the diarrhea persists and you notice any signs of dehydration like less frequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine. Do not administer any other medication without consulting a healthcare professional.
Do all viral common colds require antibiotics?
Most times, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. In fact, administering antibiotics to viral infections can increase your child’s risk of developing side effects. It is crucial to consult a doctor before giving any antibiotic treatment.
Is yellow-green mucus from the nose a sign of infection?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not necessarily indicate bacterial infection. During a common cold, mucus can change colour and thicken. Symptoms often persist for 7-10 days.
What are the signs that require immediate medical attention?
You should immediately contact your child's doctor if they experience serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal issues (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects can be rare but are significant and need professional care.
