BACIPEN 500MG TABLET

BACIPEN 500MG TABLET is an antibiotic medicine used to treat bacterial infections in children. It is used in treating infections of the skin, throat, ear, and lungs caused by bacteria. A bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria enter and grow in the body. This bacteria can infect any part of the child's body and multiply very quickly. BACIPEN 500MG TABLET is effective in treating infections caused by bacteria only and does not treat viral infections like flu or a common cold.

BACIPEN 500MG TABLET contains Ampicillin belonging to the penicillin class of drugs. It works by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) and causing damage to the bacterial cell wall. This eventually leads to the death of the bacterial cell and thus prevents the growth of bacterial infections.
