Special Advise

Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment, even if you feel better. Stopping it early may make the infection come back and harder to treat.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Probiotics should be taken after taking the full course of MXC-P Eye Drops 5 ml to restore some of the healthy bacteria in the intestines that may have been killed. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, kombucha, and kimchi can 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. Thus, fibre foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains like whole-grain bread, brown rice should be included in your diet. 
  • Avoid taking too much calcium, iron-enriched foods, and drinks as it might affect the working of MXC-P Eye Drops 5 ml. 
  • Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages with MXC-P Eye Drops 5 ml as it can make you dehydrated and affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid the MXC-P Eye Drops 5 ml in fighting off infections.
