Key Information
Short Description
Wydrox Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine used to treat bacterial infections in children, including skin, throat, tonsils, and urinary tract infections.
Dosage Form
Dry Syrup
Introduction
Wydrox Dry Syrup is an antibiotic prescribed for children to treat various bacterial infections, such as those affecting the skin, throat, and tonsils. It may also be used as a second line of treatment for urinary tract infections. The medicine works by preventing the formation of the bacterial cell wall, which is essential for bacterial survival. This action stops the bacteria from growing and spreading, thereby treating the infection. It is crucial to complete the entire course of antibiotics to prevent bacterial resistance and recurrence of infection. Common side effects are not listed, but any severe reactions like itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties should be reported to a doctor immediately.
Directions for Use
Give Wydrox Dry Syrup to your child with food to avoid an upset stomach. Ensure your child completes the entire course of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor.
How it works
Wydrox Dry Syrup works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall), which is essential for the survival of the bacteria. This action stops the infection-causing bacteria from growing further and prevents the infection from spreading.
Quick Tips
Your child must complete the entire course of antibiotics. Stopping too soon may cause the bacteria to multiply, become resistant, or cause another infection. Give Wydrox Dry Syrup with food to avoid an upset stomach. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water in case diarrhea develops as a side effect. Conditions like common cold and flu are caused by viruses. This medicine is not to be taken in such cases. Only give Wydrox Dry Syrup to your child for their current infection. Never save medicine for future illnesses. Stop this medicine and immediately report to your child’s doctor in case your child develops an itchy rash, facial swelling, or breathing difficulties while taking this medicine.

If you think you have given too much Wydrox Dry Syrup to your child, immediately consult a doctor. Overdose may cause unwanted side effects and potentially worsen your child's condition.
Can Wydrox Dry Syrup cause serious side effects?

Can other medicines be taken with Wydrox Dry Syrup?
Wydrox Dry Syrup may interact with other medicines or substances. Inform your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Wydrox Dry Syrup, and consult with your child's doctor before giving any additional medication.
Can my child receive vaccinations while taking Wydrox Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics typically do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not receive vaccinations until they have recovered from their illness. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be administered.
What lab tests may my child undergo while taking Wydrox Dry Syrup long-term?
The doctor may prescribe periodic kidney and liver function tests to monitor your child's condition.
What does it mean if my child has a runny nose with yellow-green mucus?
During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken and change color. This color change does not necessarily indicate the need for antibiotics. These symptoms often last 7-10 days. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor.
Can Wydrox Dry Syrup affect my child's digestive system?
Children may experience stomach upset while taking medicines, including Wydrox Dry Syrup. This antibiotic may affect or compromise the good bacteria in their gastrointestinal tract, potentially leading to diarrhea. If your child experiences diarrhea while taking Wydrox Dry Syrup, do not stop the medication abruptly. Instead, consult your child's doctor for guidance on the next steps.
Can Wydrox Dry Syrup lead to bacterial resistance in my child?
Yes, irregular treatment, repeated use, and misuse of Wydrox Dry Syrup can lead to bacterial resistance. This means that the same antibiotic may not be effective in the future, and a different antibiotic may be needed, which may not work or cause increased side effects.
