How it works
Miximox CV Kid 200mg/28.5mg Tablet 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.

Should I give a higher dose of Miximox CV Kid 200mg/28.5mg Tablet to my child?

Can I stop giving Miximox CV Kid 200mg/28.5mg Tablet to my child once symptoms subside?

Can Miximox CV Kid 200mg/28.5mg Tablet cause diarrhea?
Yes, Miximox CV Kid 200mg/28.5mg Tablet can cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties that kill harmful bacteria and affect the helpful bacteria in your child's stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water or other fluids if they experience diarrhea. Consult with a doctor if diarrhea persists and signs of dehydration, such as dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, are observed. Do not give any other medication without consulting a doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infections?
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 or green mucus a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus 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.
Is there any sign that requires immediate medical attention?
You must call your child's doctor right away if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), and liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). Although rare, these side effects are serious and require expert attention.
