How it works
Vaxclave 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.

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Vaxclave Dry Syrup?
Vaxclave Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Before starting Vaxclave Dry Syrup, inform your child's doctor about all other medications they are taking. It is also important to consult with your child’s healthcare provider before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Vaxclave Dry Syrup?
Generally, antibiotics do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is recommended that your child only be vaccinated after recovering from the illness and if so advised by their doctor.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Vaxclave Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Periodically, doctors may monitor kidney and liver function tests during prolonged treatment with Vaxclave Dry Syrup. This helps ensure your child’s condition is being properly monitored.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Vaxclave Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher dose of this medicine may increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsened symptoms, consult their doctor for a re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Vaxclave Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not discontinue Vaxclave Dry Syrup without completing the full course of treatment. Even if your child experiences symptom relief, it doesn't mean the infection has been fully cleared.
Can the use of Vaxclave Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Vaxclave Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. This is because the medicine works by killing harmful bacteria and may affect the balance of helpful bacteria in your child’s stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids if they experience diarrhea. If the diarrhea persists or signs of dehydration (less frequent urination with dark urine) appear, consult a doctor before giving any other medications to your child.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Viral infections usually don't lead to secondary bacterial infections. In most cases, antibiotics are not needed for viral infections. Please consult your doctor before giving antibiotics in a viral infection.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is it a sign of a bacterial infection?
Yellow or green mucus doesn't necessarily mean the infection needs immediate attention. During a common cold, the mucus often thickens and changes color, going from clear to yellow or green. It is normal for symptoms to last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Call your child’s doctor immediately if they experience severe allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, skin rash), gastrointestinal issues (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). These are uncommon but serious side effects requiring medical intervention.
