Q. How can the bacteria develop resistance against Clarinix 125mg Dry Syrup?
Using Clarinix 125mg Dry Syrup when your child does not need it will give the bacteria an opportunity to adapt to the medicine and develop ways to escape the medicine’s effects. This will make the medicine ineffective when your child actually needs it. Usually, when this happens, people say that the child has become resistant to the antibiotic, but in reality, it is the opposite. It is actually the bacteria that have become resistant to the treatment.
