About Moxvid 30Ml Susp

Moxvid 30Ml Susp is an antibiotic medicine used to treat bacterial infections in children. It is used to treat skin, throat, ear, and lung infections 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. Moxvid 30Ml Susp effectively treats infections caused by bacteria only and does not treat viral infections like flu or a common cold.

Moxvid 30Ml Susp contains Amoxycillin belonging to the penicillin class of drugs. It 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. 

Moxvid 30Ml Susp may cause certain side effects in your child, such as indigestion, diarrhoea, nausea, and stomach pain. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your paediatrician. Moxvid 30Ml Susp should be used as advised by your doctor. Do not give more than the prescribed dose to the child. Your paediatrician will decide the dose of this medicine depending on the type and severity of the infection.

Moxvid 30Ml Susp is intended for pediatric use only. Avoid giving Moxvid 30Ml Susp to your child if she/he is allergic to antibiotics. Keep your doctor informed about your child’s health condition, medications, and medical history to rule out any side effects/interactions. If your child has liver or kidney problems, inform your paediatrician before prescribing this medicine.

Moxvid 30Ml Susp is used in the treatment of several bacterial infections in children. Moxvid 30Ml Susp works by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) and causing damage to the bacterial cell wall.

AMOXYCILLIN-125MGUlcerative colitis
Severe
How does the disease interact with Moxvid 30Ml Susp:
Nearly all antibacterial medications have been associated with Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhoea (CDAD), formerly known as pseudomembranous colitis, which can range in severity from mild diarrhoea to deadly colitis. Lincomycin and clindamycin are typically to blame. Antibacterial treatment disrupts the colon's normal flora, promoting the growth of C. difficile, whose toxins A and B contribute to the emergence of CDAD.

How to manage the interaction:
Moxvid 30Ml Susp should be used with caution in patients with a history of gastrointestinal disease, particularly colitis (inflammation in the large intestine) and pseudomembranous colitis (generally characterized by severe, persistent diarrhoea and severe abdominal cramps and sometimes associated with the passage of blood and mucus).
AMOXYCILLIN-125MGInfectious mononucleosis
Moderate
How does the disease interact with Moxvid 30Ml Susp:
When given an aminopenicillin antibiotic for mononucleosis, patients may experience a pruritic, erythematous, maculopapular skin rash. Usually, the rash self-limits and goes away a few days after the offending chemical is stopped. The underlying mechanism has been suggested to be a changed drug metabolism or an immune-mediated process unrelated to drug hypersensitivity. Patients with mononucleosis shouldn't receive treatment with antibiotics containing aminopenicillin.

How to manage the interaction:
Moxvid 30Ml Susp should not be used in patients with mononucleosis (contagious infection caused by virus) as it may cause skin rash.
AMOXYCILLIN-125MGType 1 diabetes mellitus
Moderate
How does the disease interact with Moxvid 30Ml Susp:
When utilising Clinitest®, Benedict's Solution, or Fehling's Solution to test for the presence of glucose in urine, high ampicillin concentrations in the urine may provide false-positive results. It is advised to use glucose tests based on enzymatic glucose oxidase reactions,as this effect may also occur with Moxvid 30Ml Susp.

How to manage the interaction:
High urine concentrations of Moxvid 30Ml Susp may result in false-positive reactions when testing for the presence of glucose in urine using Benedict's Solution or Fehling's Solution. Hence, it is recommended to use glucose tests based on enzymatic glucose oxidase reactions.
AMOXYCILLIN-125MGOther disorders of kidney and ureter, not elsewhere classified
Moderate
How does the disease interact with Moxvid 30Ml Susp:
The kidneys remove the majority of beta-lactam antibiotics as unaltered drugs and, in some situations, as metabolites as well. In patients with poor renal function, the blood concentrations of beta-lactam antibiotics and their metabolites may rise, and their half-lives may be prolonged. According to the individual product package labelling, dosage modifications may be required. These alterations should be based on the severity of the infection as well as the degree of renal impairment. Renal function tests should be carried out on a regular basis during prolonged and/or high-dose therapy because these medicines have occasionally been linked to nephrotoxicity and changes in renal function.

How to manage the interaction:
Dose adjustments may be required in patients with kidney impairment. Kidney function tests should be performed at regular intervals during prolonged and/or high-dose therapy since nephrotoxicity (rapid deterioration in kidney function) and alterations in kidney function have occasionally been associated with the use of Moxvid 30Ml Susp.
