How it works
Nefmox-CV DS 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 medicines be given at the same time as Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child, as Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup may interact with other substances.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics, including Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup, usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is recommended to wait until your child has recovered from the illness before getting them vaccinated.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy with Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to ensure their condition remains stable.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup to my child?
It is crucial not to give your child a higher dose of Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup than recommended, as this can increase the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not stop giving Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup to your child unless the full course of treatment is complete, even if their symptoms improve. The infection may not be fully cured, and continuing the medication may still be beneficial.
Can the use of Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Nefmox-CV DS Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties, which can disrupt the balance of helpful bacteria in your child's stomach. If your child experiences diarrhea, encourage them to drink plenty of fluids and consult your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most of the time, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Antibiotics should only be used after consulting with your child's doctor, as they can increase the risk of side effects when used unnecessarily.
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 the need for antibiotics. During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken and change color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek immediate medical attention if your child experiences severe allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These side effects are rare but serious and require prompt medical attention.
