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

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Phinmox CV Oral Suspension?
Phinmox CV Oral Suspension 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 Phinmox CV Oral Suspension. Additionally, it is essential to consult with your child’s healthcare professional before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Phinmox CV Oral Suspension?
Generally, antibiotics do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a negative reaction in children who have recently received them. However, it is advisable to delay vaccination until your child has recovered from any illness and feels well enough. Once your child recovers, they can receive the vaccine as per your healthcare professional's advice.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Phinmox CV Oral Suspension on a long-term basis?
If the treatment with Phinmox CV Oral Suspension is prolonged, periodic kidney and liver function tests can help monitor your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Phinmox CV Oral Suspension to my child?
Giving a dosage exceeding the recommended amount for this medication may increase the risk of adverse effects. If your child experiences increased symptom severity, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Phinmox CV Oral Suspension to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue the medication before completing the full course of treatment, even if you notice symptom improvement. It is essential to continue the entire course as the medicine may still be providing benefits.
Can the use of Phinmox CV Oral Suspension cause diarrhea?
Yes, Phinmox CV Oral Suspension can induce diarrhea. This antibiotic effectively targets harmful bacteria in the body. Additionally, it may affect the balance of good bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. If your child experiences diarrhea, encourage them to drink plenty of fluids and contact their doctor if the symptoms persist or signs of dehydration appear (less frequent urination with dark urine). Do not administer any other medicine without consulting a healthcare professional.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most viral common colds do not lead to secondary bacterial infections. Giving antibiotics to treat a viral infection can increase the risk of side effects. It is advisable to use antibiotics only after consulting with your child's doctor.
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. It's normal for mucus to thicken and change color (from clear to yellow or green) during this phase. Symptoms typically last 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
You must immediately contact your child’s doctor if they experience severe allergic reactions (breathing difficulties or skin rash), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). While rare, these side effects can be serious and necessitate urgent medical attention.
