How it works
Nomclox-Clav 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 Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup?
Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup may interact with other medicines or substances. Before starting this medication, inform your child's doctor about all other medications they are currently taking. Additionally, check with your child's doctor before administering any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup?
While antibiotics typically don't interfere with the ingredients of vaccines, it is crucial for children taking antibiotics to refrain from vaccination until they fully recover from the illness. Once your child feels better, they can receive the vaccine.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy with this medication, your child's doctor might perform periodic kidney and liver function tests to monitor their condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a dosage higher than what is recommended for this medication could increase the risk of adverse effects. If your child experiences worsened symptoms, consult their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, you should not stop giving this medication until after completing the prescribed dosage. Even if your child's symptoms improve before complete eradication of the infection, it is essential to continue the treatment for the full course to ensure proper recovery.
Can the use of Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Nomclox-Clav Dry Syrup may lead to diarrhea. It is an antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria and can also disrupt the balance of helpful bacteria in your child's gut leading to this side effect. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea. If the issue persists or you notice signs of dehydration (reduced urination, dark-colored and strong-smelling urine), consult with your doctor before administering any other medication.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral infections do not lead to secondary bacterial infections. Giving antibiotics in a viral infection may even increase the risk of side effects. 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 indicate a need for antibiotics. During a common cold, mucus thickens and changes color from clear to yellow or green. These symptoms typically last 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Contact your child's doctor immediately if they experience serious allergic reactions (breathing difficulties, skin rashes), gastrointestinal problems (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). While these side effects are uncommon, it is crucial to seek medical help from a specialist in such cases.
