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

Frequently asked questions
Can other medications be taken simultaneously with Moximent-CV Dry Syrup?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medications your child is taking before starting Moximent-CV Dry Syrup, as it may interact with these substances. Additionally, consult the doctor before administering any medication to your child.
Can vaccinations be given while on treatment with Moximent-CV Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics like Moximent-CV Dry Syrup generally do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have been vaccinated. However, it is recommended that children receiving antibiotics delay getting vaccinated until they recover from their illness. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
What lab tests may my child undergo while taking Moximent-CV Dry Syrup for an extended period?
During prolonged therapy, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to ensure their condition is being managed effectively.
Is it safe to give a higher dose of Moximent-CV Dry Syrup than recommended?
No, exceeding the recommended dosage can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, consult your doctor for re-evaluation and guidance on adjusting treatment accordingly.
Can I stop giving Moximent-CV Dry Syrup to my child once their symptoms have improved?
No, it is crucial not to discontinue treatment unless the full course of medication has been completed. Symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cleared, so continue administering the medicine as directed for the specified duration.
Can Moximent-CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, this medication can cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties and impact on beneficial bacteria in the stomach. If your child experiences persistent diarrhea or exhibits signs of dehydration (such as infrequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine), consult a doctor for guidance.
Do all viral common colds lead to secondary bacterial infections?
Generally, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics in cases of viral infection can increase the risk of side effects. Therefore, it is essential to consult with your child's doctor before administering antibiotics.
What does yellow-green mucus in my child's nose indicate?
Yellow or green mucus in the nose is a common symptom during a cold and typically lasts for 7-10 days. This does not necessarily mean that antibiotics are required.
When should I seek immediate medical attention for my child?
If your child experiences serious allergic reactions (breathing problems, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting), seek medical help immediately. These side effects are rare but require prompt attention from a healthcare professional.
