A-Clav Paediatric Dry Syrup 30 ml is an antibiotic medicine used to treat bacterial infections in children. It is used in treating infections of the skin, throat, ear, and lungs caused by bacteria. A bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria enter and grow in the body. This bacteria can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly.

A-Clav Paediatric Dry Syrup 30 ml is a combination medicine containing Amoxycillin (penicillin- antibiotic), Clavulanic acid and Lactic acid bacillus (probiotic). Amoxicillin works by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) and causing damage to the bacterial cell wall. This eventually leads to the death of the bacterial cell and thus prevents the growth of bacterial infections. Clavulanic acid inhibits the beta-lactamase enzyme, which prevents bacteria from destroying the efficacy of amoxicillin. Lactobacillus sporogenes is a probiotic that helps restore the balance of good bacteria in the gut.

A-Clav Paediatric Dry Syrup 30 ml is a combination medicine containing Amoxicillin, Clavulanic acid and Lactic acid Bacillus. This medicine is a broad-spectrum penicillin-type antibiotic that acts against both aerobic (grow in the presence of oxygen) and anaerobic (grow in the absence of oxygen) bacteria. Amoxicillin works by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) and causing damage to the bacterial cell wall. This eventually leads to the death of the bacterial cell and thus prevents the growth of bacterial infections. Clavulanic acid inhibits the beta-lactamase enzyme, which prevents bacteria from destroying the efficacy of amoxicillin. Lactobacillus sporogenes is a probiotic that helps restore the balance of good bacteria in the gut.

• Include more fibre-enriched food in your child’s diet, as it can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth.
• Fibre foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics.
• Avoid giving too much calcium, or iron-enriched foods, as it might affect the working of A-Clav Paediatric Dry Syrup 30 ml. 
• Make your child drink more fluids to avoid dehydration.
