ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE

Question 1

How does ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE work?

Accepted Answer

ALTAMOX DC 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 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. Together, ALTAMOX DC CAPSULE helps in treating bacterial infections and coping with the antibiotic's side effect, i.e. infectious diarrhoea.
