Introduction
Moxifem CVD 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
Moxifem CVD 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 Moxifem CVD 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 Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup to your child. Stop Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup?
Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Tell your child's doctor about all the medicines they are taking before starting Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup, and confirm any changes in medication usage with their physician. Consult a healthcare professional for guidance on safe co-administration of medications.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup?
Vaccines usually do not interfere with the ingredients in Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup or cause a reaction in a child already receiving treatment. However, children on antibiotics should wait until they recover from the illness before getting vaccinated. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Periodic monitoring of kidney and liver function tests is recommended during prolonged therapy for this medication. A doctor will determine the frequency of such checks.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher dose of Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup may increase side effect risks. If your child experiences increased symptoms, consult their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop giving this medication until the full course of treatment is completed, even if you feel better. Symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured; therefore, continue with the prescribed dosage.
Can the use of Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Moxifem CVD Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea. This is a common side effect due to its antibiotic properties that kill harmful bacteria. Moreover, it can also disrupt the balance of beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. Encourage your child to consume fluids like water if they experience this symptom. Consult your doctor if diarrhea persists and notice any signs of dehydration (e.g., decreased urination with dark-colored or strong-smelling urine). Do not administer other medications without consulting a medical professional.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral colds do not cause bacterial infections. In fact, antibiotics are not recommended for viral infections as they can increase the risk of side effects. Always consult with your child's doctor before using antibiotics.
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 always indicate bacterial infection. A common cold can cause mucus to thicken and change color, from clear to yellowish or greenish. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Call your child's doctor immediately if they experience serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). Though rare, these side effects are significant and require immediate medical intervention.
