Introduction
Moxibond 228.5 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
Moxibond 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 medications be taken with Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup?
Interactions between medications can occur. Inform your doctor about any other medications your child is taking before starting Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup. Also, consult with the doctor before administering any medication to your child.
Can my child receive vaccinations while on treatment with Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally 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 recover from the illness. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
What laboratory tests may my child undergo while on long-term treatment with Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup?
During prolonged therapy, the doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to keep track of your child's condition.
Can I give my child a higher dose of Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup than recommended?
No, taking a higher dose than recommended can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, consult with the doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup to my child once their symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue this medication unless the full treatment course is complete, even if you feel better. Symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured. Continue administering the medicine for the prescribed duration as it may still be beneficial.
Can Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Moxibond 228.5 Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. This antibiotic kills harmful bacteria but may also affect helpful bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water or other fluids. Consult with the doctor if diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as reduced urination frequency accompanied by dark-colored and strong-smelling urine. Do not administer 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. Using antibiotics for viral infections can increase your child's risk of developing side effects. Consult with your child's doctor before administering antibiotics.
Does yellow-green mucus from my child's nose indicate 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 color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign that requires immediate medical attention from my child?
Seek immediate medical attention 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.
