Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. It is capable of killing bacteria that have become resistant to other therapies and thus also helps treat tuberculosis that is resistant to other treatments.
Claviox 228.5 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.
Can other medicines be given at the same time as Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup?
It is essential to inform your child's doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup. Additionally, consult with your child's doctor before giving any medicine to your child, as Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup may interact with other substances.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics like Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup usually do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have recently been vaccinated. However, it is recommended to wait until your child has recovered from the illness before getting them vaccinated.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
During prolonged therapy, your child's doctor may monitor kidney and liver function tests periodically to ensure your child's condition remains stable.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup to my child?

Can I stop giving Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
No, do not stop giving Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup to your child unless the full course of treatment is complete, even if you feel better. The symptoms may improve before the infection is fully cured, and continuing the medicine may still be beneficial.
Can the use of Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Claviox 228.5 Dry Syrup may cause diarrhea due to its antibiotic properties, which can affect the helpful bacteria in your child's stomach.

Consult your doctor if diarrhea persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as infrequent urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine. Do not give any other medicine to your child without consulting a doctor.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
Most of the time, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Giving antibiotics in viral infections can increase your child's risk of developing side effects. Use antibiotics only after consulting with your child's doctor.
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 mean that antibiotics are needed. During a common cold, it is normal for mucus to thicken up and change color. Symptoms often last for 7-10 days.
Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?
