Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange
Prescription Required
Your child’s medicine at a glance
Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange is an antibiotic medicine that treats bacterial infections that may affect your child’s eyes, ears, nose, throat, lungs, skin, bone and joints, gastrointestinal tract, and urinary tract. It can also be used in treating typhoid fever in children and adolescents.
Give Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange to your child orally, preferably at a fixed time, either before or after meals. In case your child develops a stomach upset, prefer giving it with meals. The dose and duration depend upon the type and severity of the infection, your child’s age, and body weight, so stick to the dose, time, and way prescribed by the doctor. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of intake, repeat the same dose but do not double dose if it's time for the next dose.
Do not give this medicine to your child in case of cold and flu symptoms. Such symptoms are almost always a result of viral infections, and antibiotics are ineffective in killing viruses. Antibiotics are given in cough and flu symptoms only when the doctor detects any underlying secondary bacterial infection.
This medicine may have some minor and temporary side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and allergy. These side effects will disappear once your child’s body adapts to the medicine. However, if they persist or become bothersome for your child, report to the doctor without any delay.
Share your child’s complete medical history with your child’s doctor. Make sure the doctor knows if your child has or had any previous episode of allergy, heart problem, a blood disorder, birth defects, airway obstruction, lung anomaly, gastrointestinal problem, skin disorder, liver impairment, and kidney malfunction. This information is critical for dose alterations and for planning your child’s overall treatment.

FAQs
Q. What if I give too much of Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange by mistake?
An extra dose of Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange is unlikely to do harm. However, you must still be vigilant because overdoses may cause unwanted side effects and may even worsen your child’s condition. If you think you have given too much of Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange to your child, speak to a doctor immediately.
Q. Are there any possible serious side effects of Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange?
Some serious side effects of this medicine include persistent vomiting, kidney damage, allergy, diarrhea, and severe gastrointestinal infections. Always consult your child’s doctor for help in such a situation.
Q. Can other medicines be given at the same time as Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange?
Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange can sometimes interact with other medicines or substances. Tell your doctor about any other medicines your child is taking before starting Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange. Also, check with your child’s doctor before giving any medicine to your child.
Q. Can I get my child vaccinated while on treatment with Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange?
Antibiotics usually do not interfere with the ingredients in vaccines or cause a bad reaction in a child who has just been vaccinated. However, children taking antibiotics should not get vaccinated until they recover from the illness. As soon as your child feels better, the vaccine can be given.
Q. Can Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange impact my child’s digestion?
Children often have a sensitive stomach and develop a stomach upset while taking antibiotics. When antibiotics are given, the medicine may kill off the good bacteria along with the bad ones, increasing the risk of developing other infections. In case your child is having diarrhea while on Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange, 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.
Q. Can Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange lead to bacterial resistance in my child?
Yes, the infection-causing bacteria can become resistant to Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange because of irregular dosing, unrequired repeated use, and misuse of Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange can lead to resistance. Resistant bacteria are no longer killed by the antibiotics and may lead to reinfection.
Q. What should I tell the doctor before giving Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange to my child?
Inform the doctor if your child is suffering from heart disease, genetic disorders involving blood vessels, seizures, psychiatric disorders, diabetes, photoallergy (allergy from sunlight), neuromuscular disorders, or rheumatoid arthritis. This is because there is a possibility that Anvifix-O Dry Syrup Orange may aggravate these conditions and result in complications.
