Clarigard 250 Dry Syrup contains a single active ingredient: Clarithromycin (250 mg). It works in your child's body in several ways:

• Bacterial Protein Synthesis Inhibition: Clarithromycin works by blocking the proteins that bacteria need to grow and multiply. It attaches itself to a part of the bacteria called the ribosome, which is like a factory producing proteins that bacteria need.

• Bacterial Growth Prevention: By inhibiting protein synthesis, clarithromycin essentially stops the bacteria from growing. This reduces their number and eventually leads to their elimination from your child's body.

• Immune System Assistance: Besides directly attacking bacteria, clarithromycin also helps your child's immune system fight off bacterial infections more effectively.

• Store Clarigard-250 Dry Syrup in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight.

• The ideal temperature for storage is below 25 degrees Celsius.

• Keep the medicine in its original packaging to protect it from moisture.

• Ensure the syrup is kept out of reach of children.

• Remember to use the syrup before its expiry date to ensure effectiveness.

• If your child is being given Clarigard-250 Dry Syrup for a respiratory tract infection, make sure they drink plenty of fluids. This helps thin down mucus and makes it easier for them to breathe.

• Encourage your child to avoid exposure to second hand smoke. It can aggravate their condition and make recovery slower.
