How it works
Zariclav 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.
Quick Tips

Frequently asked questions
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Zariclav Dry Syrup?
Zariclav Dry Syrup may interact with other medications. It is important to inform your child's doctor about all medications, including vitamins and supplements, before starting treatment. Always consult a medical professional regarding any medication changes during treatment.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Zariclav Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics generally do not interfere with vaccines or cause adverse reactions in children already receiving them. However, it's advisable to avoid giving your child any vaccinations until they are fully recovered from the illness before starting Zariclav Dry Syrup. Once they feel better, they can receive the vaccine.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Zariclav Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Periodic kidney and liver function tests will be conducted by the doctor during prolonged treatment with Zariclav Dry Syrup to ensure your child's condition is stable.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Zariclav Dry Syrup to my child?
Providing a higher dosage of this medication can significantly increase the risks of side effects. In case your child experiences worsening symptoms, please contact your doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Zariclav Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue the medication until the full course of treatment is completed. Even if you observe symptom relief, continue administering Zariclav Dry Syrup for the prescribed duration as it may still be beneficial.
Can the use of Zariclav Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Zariclav Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. This is due to its antibiotic properties, which impact the gut bacteria in your child's body and may lead to digestive issues.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
While a large majority of viral infections don't develop bacterial infections, it's crucial to consult with your child's doctor before initiating antibiotics. Antibiotics are not required for viral infections.
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 a bacterial infection, especially during common cold symptoms. Mucus thickening and color changes are normal during this time.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
Seek urgent medical attention if your child experiences allergic reactions (difficulty breathing or skin rashes), gastrointestinal issues (diarrhea), and/or liver problems like weakness, paleness, or vomiting. These are serious side effects and require prompt expert intervention.
