Podox CV 50 mg/31.25 mg Dry Syrup is a potent antibiotic made up of two active medications. It is given to children to treat a wide range of severe bacterial infections targeting the ear, throat, lungs, skin, and urinary tract. It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria thereby preventing the infection spread.
Give this medication to your child an hour before or two hours after meals. If your child develops a stomach upset, prefer giving it with food. Make sure to stick to the recommended dose because it is given keeping in mind the type of infection, its severity, and the age and bodyweight of your child. In case your child gags and expels the medication within 30 mins of intake, repeat the same dose but do not double dose if it’s the time for the next dose.
Some of the minor and temporary side effects of this medication include vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, rash, and headache. Usually, these episodes subside once your child’s body adapts to the medication. However, if these effects persist or become bothersome for your child, call the doctor right away.
