Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Trixon-O 50mg Dry Syrup?

Yellow or green mucus in the nose doesn't necessarily indicate a bacterial infection. In many cases, nasal discharge changes from clear to yellow or green during common cold symptoms. These symptoms usually last for 7-10 days.
Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When to start an antibiotic to prevent infection?
In the majority of cases, bacterial infections don't follow viral infections. It's important not to start antibiotics for a virus as this may not benefit your child and could even cause side effects. If your child develops any serious symptoms following a cold or flu, consult a doctor.
