About Emrok O Tablet 4's

Emrok O Tablet 4's belongs to the class of 'antibiotics', primarily used to treat bacterial skin and soft tissue infections, including diabetic foot infections and concurrent bacteraemia (presence of viable bacteria in the bloodstream). It also targets Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which causes antimicrobial resistance (AMR). 

Emrok O Tablet 4's contains 'Levonadifloxacin,' a bactericidal agent that prevents bacterial growth and interrupts bacterial replication. It is also a beta-lactamase inhibitor.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Wash your hands often to maintain cleanliness.
  • Avoid sharing personal items like shaving razors.
  • Include whole-grain foods in your diet. 
  • Taking probiotics after an antibiotic treatment reduces the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. 
  • Try taking yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, and kimchi that help restore the intestine's good bacteria.
  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet that is easily digested by your gut bacteria. Fibre foods may also help restore healthy gut bacteria after treatment with antibiotics. 
  • Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages as they can make you dehydrated and affect your sleep. 
  • Manage stress, eat healthily, drink plenty of water, exercise regularly, and sleep well.

  • There is an increased risk of tendinitis and tendon rupture following fluoroquinolone (like Levonadifloxacin) therapy; hence a cautious use of Emrok O Tablet 4's is recommended.
  • Emrok O Tablet 4's may cause mental health-related side effects; hence patients with mood disorders should take advice accordingly.
  • Monitor your blood sugar levels regularly since Levonadifloxacin may affect your glucose levels in diabetes.
