Introduction

Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup is an effective antibiotic medicine designed to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It is particularly useful for infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. This medication is capable of killing bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies, making it a valuable option for treating resistant tuberculosis. It is important to complete the entire course of antibiotics to prevent the bacteria from multiplying again, becoming resistant, or causing another infection. Side effects may include a bitter taste in the mouth, and in rare cases, an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Always consult a doctor before using this medication.

Administer the prescribed dose of Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup to your child as directed by the doctor. Ensure the entire course is completed even if symptoms improve.

Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup contains two active agents: amoxycillin and clavulanic acid. Amoxycillin works by preventing the formation of the bacterial cell wall, which is essential for bacterial survival. Clavulanic acid inhibits an enzyme (beta-lactamase) produced by resistant bacteria, making the combination effective against many types of infections.

Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again, become resistant, or cause another infection. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after taking Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Never give Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not share your child’s medicine with anyone else even if they show similar symptoms. Do not use Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. It cannot be said whether the same medicine will work on future infections. Check the expiry date before giving Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all expired medicines. Stop Rapiclav Forte Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.
