PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE

PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE belongs to the class of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, urinary tract, tonsillitis, bronchitis, bones, pneumonia, etc. A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply and infect our bodies. Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in your body.

PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE is a combination of two medicines: Amoxicillin and Dicloxacillin. Amoxicillin and Dicloxacillin are antibiotics showing bactericidal (kills bacteria) activity. They work by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering (protective cell wall) necessary for their survival. Together, PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE helps treat bacterial infections.

Take PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE as prescribed by your doctor. Your doctor will recommend how often you take PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE based on your medical condition. The common side effects of PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE are heartburn, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, bloating, gas, mouth ulcers and red or swollen gums.

PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE is a combination of two medicines: Amoxicillin and Dicloxacillin. Amoxicillin and Dicloxacillin are antibiotics showing 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. Together, PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE helps treat bacterial infections.

Do not PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE if you are allergic to penicillins, cephalosporins, other antibiotics or other allergens. It is advised not to take self-medicate antibiotics as they 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 PULMOCLOX 500MG CAPSULE, consult a doctor immediately.
