Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Probiotics should be taken after completing the full course of Moxiflox 100Ml Inf in order to restore the healthy bacteria in the intestines that may have been killed due to antibiotics. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, kombucha and kimchi can help restore the good bacteria of the intestine. 
  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth.

  • Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages with Moxiflox 100Ml Inf as it can make you dehydrated and affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid Moxiflox 100Ml Inf in fighting off infections.
