Oxylav Dry Syrup is an antibiotic medicine that helps treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, chest, lungs, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. Oxylav 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.
Oxylav 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 Oxylav Dry Syrup?
Oxylav Dry Syrup may interact with other medications or substances. Please inform your child's doctor about all other medications your child is taking before starting treatment. Consult your child's doctor before administering any medication to your child.
Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Oxylav Dry Syrup?
Antibiotics typically do not interfere with vaccine ingredients or cause adverse reactions in children who have been recently vaccinated. However, before administering vaccines to a child on antibiotics, it's best to check with their doctor as they may advise a delay until the infection is cleared. Once your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.
Which lab tests may my child undergo while taking Oxylav Dry Syrup on a long-term basis?
Regularly monitoring kidney and liver function tests during prolonged therapy is important to assess your child's condition.
Can I give a higher than the recommended dose of Oxylav Dry Syrup to my child?
Giving a higher dose of this medication can increase the risk of side effects. If your child experiences worsening symptoms, please consult their doctor for re-evaluation.
Can I stop giving Oxylav Dry Syrup to my child when the symptoms are relieved?
Do not stop administering this medication unless the entire course of treatment is completed. Even if you notice symptom improvement, it may not mean that the infection is fully cured. Therefore, continue the full course as it might still be beneficial.
Can the use of Oxylav Dry Syrup cause diarrhea?
Yes, Oxylav Dry Syrup can cause diarrhea. This antibiotic kills harmful bacteria. Additionally, this medication can impact the beneficial bacteria in your child's stomach and contribute to diarrhea. Encourage your child to drink ample fluids if they experience diarrhea. Seek immediate medical attention if you notice any signs of dehydration, such as decreased urination with dark-colored and strong-smelling urine.
Do all viral common colds result in secondary bacterial infection?
While most viral common colds do not develop into secondary bacterial infections, it's crucial to remember that antibiotics should only be used after consulting with your child's doctor. They can help prevent complications and guide appropriate treatment if necessary.
The mucus coming out of my child’s nose is yellow-green. Is this a sign of a bacterial infection?

Is there any sign which shows that my child needs immediate medical attention?

Although rare, these side effects are serious and require prompt professional care.
