Mox Dry Syrup 250 mg (60 mL)

Mox Dry Syrup 250 mg (60 mL) is an amoxicillin antibiotic in oral syrup form made by Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. Each bottle contains amoxicillin 250 mg after reconstitution, and the pack contains 10 bottles. It is used to treat certain bacterial infections, not viral illnesses like colds or flu. Because it is a dry syrup, it is mixed with water before use so the medicine can be taken by mouth in liquid form.

How it works: Amoxicillin works by stopping bacteria from building the protective cell wall they need to survive. In syrup form, Mox Dry Syrup 250 mg (60 mL) lets the antibiotic be measured and taken more easily, especially when a liquid dose is needed.

Mox Dry Syrup 250 mg (60 mL) is a doctor-selected strength for patients who need an amoxicillin liquid that is easy to swallow and dose by mouth. Compared with lower-strength amoxicillin liquids, this 250 mg bottle may allow fewer mL per dose, but it is still only appropriate when the prescriber has chosen this exact strength for the patient’s age, weight, and infection. It is not a starting strength for everyone.

• Ear infections
• Throat and tonsil infections
• Sinus infections
• Chest and lung infections
• Urinary tract infections
• Skin and soft tissue infections

• Reconstitute the dry syrup with clean water exactly as directed before the first use.
• Shake the bottle well before each dose so the medicine is evenly mixed.
• Measure each dose with an oral syringe or marked dosing spoon, not a kitchen spoon.
• Take it at evenly spaced times as prescribed, and finish the full course even if symptoms improve.
• It may be taken with or without food; taking it with food can help reduce stomach upset.
• If a dose is missed, take it when remembered unless it is almost time for the next dose; do not double up.

Each bottle of Mox Dry Syrup 250 mg (60 mL) provides amoxicillin 250 mg in the reconstituted suspension, and the prescribed volume per dose depends on the patient’s weight and infection. The doctor decides how often it is taken, commonly 2 or 3 times a day, and the total daily amount should not exceed the prescriber’s instructions. Do not use this 250 mg syrup as a self-chosen dose, because the right amount is individualized for this strength.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
