About A-Doxid L Capsule 10's

A-Doxid L Capsule 10's belongs to a group of medications called antibiotics, used to treat bacterial infections such as urinary tract infections, intestinal infections, respiratory infections, eye infections, gum infections, and sexually transmitted infections (like gonorrhoea, syphilis). Bacterial infections are caused due to the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. A-Doxid L Capsule 10's does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu.

A-Doxid L Capsule 10's contains Doxycycline and Lactic acid bacillus. Doxycycline prevents the synthesis of essential proteins which are necessary for the survival of the bacteria, thereby kills the bacteria. Lactic acid bacteria is a microorganism that helps restore the balance of good bacteria in the gut, which may have gotten upset due to infections or antibiotic use. Together, A-Doxid L Capsule 10's helps in treating bacterial infections.

You are advised to take A-Doxid L Capsule 10's for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and stomach upset. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of the components in A-Doxid L Capsule 10's. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Avoid alcohol consumption as it might affect the working of A-Doxid L Capsule 10's. A-Doxid L Capsule 10's may cause dizziness, so be cautious while driving.
