Amoxycillin (200mg) + Clavulanic Acid (28.5mg)

Overview Extclav 200mg/28.5mg Tablet DT

Clavulin 200mg/28.5mg extended-release tablets combat bacterial infections affecting the ears, nose, throat, respiratory system, teeth, skin, and urinary tract. Its effectiveness extends to bacteria resistant to other treatments, including multi-drug resistant tuberculosis. Administer Clavulin to your child with or without food; however, giving it with food enhances absorption and minimizes stomach discomfort. The prescribed dosage, typically two to three times daily, depends on the infection's severity, type, and your child's age and weight. Strictly adhere to the prescribed dosage regimen. If vomiting occurs within 30 minutes of administration, allow your child to rest and repeat the dose. Avoid doubling the dose if it's near the next scheduled time. Potential side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and allergic reactions, usually subside. However, persistent or bothersome side effects warrant immediate consultation with your child's physician. Provide a complete medical history to your doctor, including any allergies, cardiovascular issues, blood disorders, congenital anomalies, respiratory problems, gastrointestinal conditions, skin ailments, liver dysfunction, or kidney impairment. This comprehensive information aids in accurate dosage adjustments and optimal treatment planning.

Extclav 200mg/28.5mg Tablet DT may interact with other medications. Inform your child's doctor about all medications your child is taking before administering Extclav 200mg/28.5mg Tablet DT, and always consult your child's doctor before giving them any medication.
Generally, antibiotics don't affect vaccines or cause adverse reactions in recently vaccinated children. However, vaccination should be postponed until a child recovers from an illness requiring antibiotics. The vaccine can be administered once your child is well.
Regular kidney and liver function tests may be used by your child's doctor to monitor their progress during extended treatment.
Exceeding the recommended dosage of this medication raises the risk of side effects. If your child's symptoms worsen, contact your doctor for assessment.

Extclav 200mg/28.5mg Tablets may cause diarrhea as a side effect. This is because, while it fights harmful bacteria, it can also affect beneficial gut bacteria. If your child experiences diarrhea, increase their fluid intake. Contact your doctor if diarrhea persists or you observe dehydration symptoms such as infrequent, dark, strong-smelling urine. Never administer other medications without consulting a doctor.
Bacterial infections rarely follow viral infections; antibiotics are unnecessary and may harm your child if given for a viral illness. Always consult your child's doctor before using antibiotics.
