How it works
Xbta DS 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 Xbta DS Dry Syrup?
Xbta DS Dry Syrup can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medications your child may be taking before starting treatment with Xbta DS Dry Syrup. Also, consult your child’s healthcare professional before administering any medicine to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Xbta DS Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics are not known to interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a negative reaction in children who have recently received them. However, children on antibiotics should not be vaccinated until they recover from the illness. Once your child is feeling better, the vaccine can be administered.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Xbta DS Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
With prolonged treatment, the doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to assess your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Xbta DS Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a dosage exceeding the recommended amount for this medication can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences an increase in symptoms, please consult with your doctor for further evaluation.
Can I stop giving Xbta DS Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue this medicine without completing the prescribed course. Even if you feel better, it's crucial to finish all the medication to ensure that the infection is fully cleared. Symptoms might improve before the complete cure.
Can the use of Xbta DS Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Xbta DS Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea. It acts as an antibiotic by killing harmful bacteria. Additionally, it can disrupt the balance of helpful bacteria in your child's stomach, leading to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water or other fluids if they experience this symptom. Seek guidance from your doctor if diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as reduced urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine. Avoid giving any medication to your child without consulting a medical professional.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
In most cases, bacterial infections do not occur after viral infections. Giving antibiotics when there is only a viral infection can increase the risk of side effects. Therefore, consult your child's doctor before administering antibiotics.
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, mucus often thickens and changes color from clear to yellow or green. Symptoms usually last for 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 (difficulty breathing, skin rash), gastrointestinal problems (diarrhea), or liver damage (weakness, paleness, vomiting). While rare, these side effects are significant and necessitate expert intervention.
