Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup?
Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. It is crucial to inform your child's doctor about all other medications they are taking before starting Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup. Always consult a healthcare professional for guidance on medication administration.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics do not typically interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, children undergoing antibiotic therapy should avoid getting vaccinated until they are fully recovered from the illness. Once your child feels well, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged treatment with this medication, periodic monitoring of kidney and liver function is typically recommended by the doctor to assess your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher dose of this medication than prescribed can increase the risk of adverse side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, please consult their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop giving this medication to your child unless the entire course of treatment is complete, even if you feel better. Symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured. Therefore, continue giving the medicine for the full duration as it may still be providing beneficial effects.
Can the use of Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Moxizest-CV Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. This is due to its antibiotic nature; it kills harmful bacteria and impacts the helpful bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. If your child experiences this side effect, encourage them to drink plenty of water or other fluids. Consult your doctor if diarrhea persists or if you notice any signs of dehydration, such as decreased urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine. Do not give any other medication to your child without consulting a healthcare professional.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral common colds do not lead to bacterial infections. Giving antibiotics during a viral infection can even increase the risk of side effects. Consult your child's doctor before administering any 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 necessarily indicate a bacterial infection. During a common cold, mucus typically thickens and changes color from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms usually subside within 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences serious allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rashes), severe gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects are rare but require expert attention.
