Introduction
Moxinate 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
Moxinate 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. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Never give Moxinate Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Moxinate Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Moxinate Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Moxinate Dry Syrup?
Moxinate Dry Syrup may interact with certain medications or substances. Before starting Moxinate Dry Syrup, inform your child's doctor about any other medications they are taking to avoid potential interactions. It is crucial to consult your child's physician before administering any other medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Moxinate Dry Syrup?
Generally, antibiotics do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause negative reactions in children who have recently received a vaccination. However, it is advisable to postpone vaccination until the child has recovered from the illness as prescribed by their doctor. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered as per your doctor's guidance.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Moxinate Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
The frequency of kidney and liver function tests for children on long-term treatment with Moxinate Dry Syrup can vary. Your doctor will determine the appropriate timing based on individual needs and clinical responses.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Moxinate Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving an increased dosage of this medicine may raise the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, reach out to your doctor for reevaluation.
Can I stop giving Moxinate Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Never discontinue Moxinate Dry Syrup without completing the full prescribed course of treatment, even if you observe symptom improvement. Symptoms may abate before the infection is completely cured. Continuing the medication according to your doctor's instructions can provide additional benefit.
Can the use of Moxinate Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Moxinate Dry Syrup can lead to diarrhea as it kills bacteria that may also impact the beneficial bacteria in your child’s stomach. To manage this, encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids like water or clear broth. If the diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as infrequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine, seek advice from your doctor before administering any other medication.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Viruses usually trigger the common cold. While some bacteria may develop in the throat or nose due to a weakened immune system, it is not typical for viral infections to cause secondary bacterial infections unless the child has specific underlying health conditions that increase their risk. Consult with your doctor before giving 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 is not an indication that antibiotics are needed. During a common cold, mucus can change thickness and color from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek emergency medical attention immediately if your child experiences severe allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rashes), gastrointestinal issues (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). While rare, these side effects are serious and require expert medical care.
