ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE

ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE belongs to a class of drugs called antibiotics used in the treatment of several bacterial infections of the urinary tract, ears, nose, throat, chest, and lungs. Bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria grow in the body and cause infection. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly. ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE does not work against infections caused by the virus.

ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE is a combination of two antibiotics (Amoxicillin, Cloxacillin) and one probiotic (Lactobacillus sporogenes ).  Amoxicillin and Cloxacillin work by interfering with the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) that is necessary for their survival. Thereby, damages the bacterial cell wall and kills bacteria. Lactobacillus sporogenes belongs to the class of probiotics (live micro-organisms that keeps the body healthy) that help to restore good bacteria in the intestines. Thus, it prevents diarrhoea and loss of beneficial bacteria due to prolonged intake of ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE.

Take ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition.
