Amoxycillin and Potassium Clavulanate Oral Suspension IP

PACIMOX-CV DUO is a high-strength, broad-spectrum antibiotic dry syrup formulation by Pacitora Biotech that combines Amoxycillin (a penicillin-class antibiotic) and Potassium Clavulanate (a beta-lactamase inhibitor) in a stronger 6 gm/30 ml concentration. This DUO (double strength) formulation is specifically designed for patients with moderate to severe bacterial infections or those caused by beta-lactamase-producing resistant bacteria that would not respond to standard-dose amoxycillin-clavulanate.

Key Benefits:

• Higher Strength Formulation (6 gm/30 ml) – For moderate to severe infections requiring intensified therapy.

• Dual Action Against Resistant Bacteria – Amoxycillin kills bacteria; Clavulanate prevents antibiotic destruction by beta-lactamase enzymes.

• Broader Spectrum Coverage – Effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including many resistant strains.

• Treats Moderate to Severe Respiratory Infections – Pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, tonsillitis, and otitis media.

• Effective for Complicated UTI & Kidney Infections – Cystitis, pyelonephritis, and other complicated urinary tract infections.

• Skin & Soft Tissue Infections – Cellulitis, infected wounds, diabetic foot infections, and animal bites.

• Intra-Abdominal & Gynecological Infections – Peritonitis, pelvic inflammatory disease (as part of combination therapy).

FAQs:

1. What does “DUO” mean in Pacimox-CV DUO?
DUO indicates the double strength (6 gm/30 ml) formulation. It provides the same antibiotic in a higher concentration, allowing lower volume dosing for the same dose – especially useful for children and patients who struggle with larger liquid volumes.

2. Is Pacimox-CV DUO stronger than regular Pacimox-CV?
Yes – DUO is a higher concentration (6 gm/30 ml vs. 3 gm/30 ml). It allows higher dosing without increasing the volume of liquid your child needs to swallow.

3. Can children take Pacimox-CV DUO?
Yes – children may benefit from the DUO formulation because it requires less liquid volume per dose. However, dosage must be calculated based on body weight. Always follow your pediatrician’s prescription.

4. How should I store Pacimox-CV DUO after mixing?
After reconstitution (mixing with water), refrigerate the suspension and use within 7 days. Do not freeze. Shake well before each use.
