How it works
Soloxim CV Dry Syrup is a potent antibiotic comprising two active medicines: Cefixime and Clavulanic acid. Cefixime works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) which is essential for the survival of the bacteria. By doing so, this medicine stops the infection-causing bacteria from growing and prevents the infection from spreading without making the bacteria resistant to further treatment. The second ingredient, clavulanic acid, is a beta-lactamase inhibitor. It reduces resistance and enhances the activity of cefixime against bacteria.
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. Eating citrus fruit or sipping plenty of water or fruit juice may help if the medicine causes a bitter taste. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Never give Soloxim CV Dry Syrup until and unless prescribed by the doctor. Do not give Soloxim CV Dry Syrup to treat common cold and flu-like symptoms caused by viruses. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Stop Soloxim CV Dry Syrup immediately if your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulty.

Frequently asked questions
What if I give too much of Soloxim CV Dry Syrup by mistake?
If you believe you have given too much Soloxim CV Dry Syrup to your child, contact a medical professional immediately. While an extra dose may not always cause harm, it can increase the risk of unwanted side effects and potentially worsen your child's condition.
Are there any possible serious side effects of Soloxim CV Dry Syrup?
Possible serious side effects of this medicine include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergic reactions, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. Always consult your child's doctor for assistance in case of such an occurrence.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Soloxim CV Dry Syrup?
Soloxim CV Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. It is essential to inform your child's doctor about all other medicines your child takes before starting Soloxim CV Dry Syrup. Always consult your child's doctor for guidance regarding medication administration.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Soloxim CV Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently received a vaccination. However, children taking antibiotics should not receive vaccines until they recover from their illness. After your child recovers, the vaccine can be administered as advised by your doctor.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
The color of mucus does not indicate the type of infection present. Yellow or green mucus in the nose does not necessarily signify the need for antibiotics. During a common cold, typical symptoms can persist for 7 to 10 days and exhibit changes in texture and colour.
My child is having a sore throat and ear infection. Can I give antibiotics?
No. The majority of sore throats and ear infections are caused by viruses, for which antibiotics are not used. If your child has a sore throat, runny nose, a barking cough, pain, and discharge from the ear, it is likely due to a virus. Consult with your child's doctor for appropriate guidance.
