Does a common cold caused by viruses always result in a secondary bacterial infection? When to start an antibiotic to prevent infection?

In most cases, bacterial infections do not follow viral infections. Using antibiotics to treat viral infections may instead lead to side effects without benefiting your child's health. Hence, you must give antibiotics to your child only after consulting with your child’s doctor.

Can Cefurovil 125 Dry Syrup Pineapple with Mint impact my child’s digestion?

Antibiotics kill the infection-causing bacteria, but while doing this they may affect the good bacteria present in the gastrointestinal tract. As a result, your child may develop diarrhea or some other infections as well. Moreover, children have a more sensitive stomach than adults, so the likelihood of developing a stomach upset is more. In case your child is having diarrhea while on Cefurovil 125 Dry Syrup Pineapple with Mint, do not stop the medicine course. Instead, call your child’s doctor to ask about the next steps. In some cases, the doctor may alter the dose.

The amount of time Cefurovil 125 Dry Syrup Pineapple with Mint takes to work depends on the type of infection and response of the patient to the medicine.

How long should you take Cefurovil 125 Dry Syrup Pineapple with Mint?

The duration of therapy with Cefurovil 125 Dry Syrup Pineapple with Mint depends upon the type of infection. It is usually given for 7 days.

Before starting the medication consult a doctor who will prescribe the exact duration of therapy and follow the instructions as given.

Can Cefurovil 125 Dry Syrup Pineapple with Mint be taken on an empty stomach?

No, Cefurovil 125 Dry Syrup Pineapple with Mint should not be taken on an empty stomach like other antibiotics of its class. It should be taken twice daily after a meal.
