Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule

Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule belongs to the class of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, urinary tract, tonsillitis, bronchitis, and pneumonia. 

Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule is a combination of three medicines: Amoxicillin, Dicloxacillin, and Lactobacillus. Amoxicillin and Dicloxacillin are antibiotics, and they show bactericidal (kills bacteria) activity. They work by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering (protective cell wall) necessary for their survival. Lactobacillus is used as a probiotic. It helps balance the number of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract (gut) to manage water loss (diarrhoea) due to antibiotics or infections. Together, Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule helps in treating bacterial infections and coping with the antibiotic's side effect, i.e. infectious diarrhoea.

You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule are heartburn, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, bloating, gas, mouth ulcers, and red or swollen gums. These side-effects usually go away without any medical attention. However, consult a doctor if any of these side-effects persist or get worsen.

Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule is a combination of three medicines: Amoxicillin, Dicloxacillin, and Lactobacillus. Amoxicillin and Dicloxacillin are antibiotics, and they show bactericidal (kills bacteria) activity. They are broad-spectrum penicillin antibiotics that act against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. They work by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering (protective cell wall) necessary for their survival. Lactobacillus is used as a probiotic. It helps in balancing the number of beneficial bacteria (E-coli) in the digestive tract (gut) to manage water loss (diarrhoea) occurred due to antibiotic or infections. It also helps in the treatment of diarrhoea (water loss) and cramps caused by harmful E. Coli bacteria. Together, Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule helps in treating bacterial infections and coping with the antibiotic's side effect, i.e. infectious diarrhoea.

Do not Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule if you are allergic to penicillins, cephalosporins, other antibiotics, or other allergens. It is advised not to take self-medicate antibiotics as it may cause antibiotic resistance (failure of antibiotics to act against bacterial infections). Inform your doctor if you have mononucleosis or glandular fever (fever with a sore throat, swollen glands, and extreme tiredness), as you may be more prone to developing a skin rash. Your symptoms may improve before the bacterial infection is completely cured. Therefore, it is always advised to complete the course of therapy. If you notice bloody diarrhoea or have urination problems while using Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule , consult a doctor immediately.
