Introduction
Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. It is capable of killing bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies and thus also helps treat tuberculosis that is resistant to other treatments.
Directions for Use
Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply again or cause another infection.
How it works
Richmox CV Duo 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.
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. Your child may have a bitter taste in the mouth after the intake of Richmox CV Duo 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 Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Check ‘expiry’ before giving Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup to your child. Immediately discard all the expired medicines. Stop Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty. Report to the doctor without any delay.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup?
Before starting Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup, inform your doctor about any other medications your child is taking. Additionally, consult with their doctor before administering any new medication.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics typically 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 their illness before receiving a vaccine.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Your child's doctor may recommend periodic monitoring of kidney and liver function tests to ensure their condition remains stable during prolonged therapy.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving your child more medication than prescribed can increase the risk of adverse effects. If you notice an intensification of symptoms, consult with your doctor for further evaluation.
Can I stop giving Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not discontinue treatment unless the full course is complete, even if symptoms improve before the infection is fully cured. Continue administering the medication as directed for its intended duration.
Can the use of Richmox CV Duo Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, this medication may cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties and alteration of beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea, but consult with a doctor if symptoms persist or you notice signs of dehydration.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most often, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Administering antibiotics for a viral infection can increase the risk of adverse effects, so use them only under the guidance of 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 the need for antibiotics. During a common cold, thickened and colored mucus can be a normal symptom that typically resolves on its own 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 severe allergic reactions (respiratory distress, skin rash), gastrointestinal infections (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These are rare but serious side effects requiring prompt expert care.
