About Lymoribe Capsule

Lymoribe Capsule belongs to a group of medications called tetracycline antibiotics. Lymoribe Capsule is used to treat acne. Acne is a skin condition that occurs when pores of the skin become plugged with oil and dead skin cells or bacteria. It causes blackheads, whiteheads, or pimples. A bacterial infection is a condition in which bacteria grows in the body and cause infection. It can target any body part and multiple very quickly.

Lymoribe Capsule contains lymecycline (antibiotic) primarily used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It is a derivative of the tetracycline class of antibiotics that inhibits the protein synthesis process required for bacterial growth. As a result, bacterial cells are not able to reproduce and grow. It is a bacteriostatic antibiotic, i.e. it stops bacteria's growth but does not necessarily kill them.

You are advised to take Lymoribe Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. You may experience headache, photosensitivity (extreme sensitivity to ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun and other light sources), dizziness, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects of Lymoribe Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor. Complete the course of medicine even if you feel better and leaving it in between may lead to even severe infection that will, in fact, stop responding to the antibiotic as well (antibiotic resistance).

Lymoribe Capsule is pregnancy category D (high risk) medicines so, its use in pregnant and nursing mothers is not recommended. It may affect bone and tooth development in unborn babies. Use of Lymoribe Capsule during tooth development (pregnancy, infancy, and childhood to the age of 12 years) may cause permanent staining of teeth (yellow-grey-brown). Its use should be avoided by pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and children below 12 years of age. Do not consume alcohol as it may cause excessive drowsiness when taken along with Lymoribe Capsule . Before taking Lymoribe Capsule , tell your doctor if you ever had an allergy to Lymoribe Capsule or to any tetracycline antibiotic. Please do not drink alcohol with Lymoribe Capsule as it may increase the unpleasant side effects. Do not take Lymoribe Capsule if you have ever had kidney disease.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Probiotics should be taken after taking the full course of Lymoribe Capsule to restore some of the healthy bacteria in the intestines that may have been killed. Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, kombucha, and kimchi can help restore the intestine's good bacteria.
  • Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Thus, fibre foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains like whole-grain bread, brown rice should be included in your diet.
  • Eating grapefruit during antibiotics treatment can prevent the body from utilising Lymoribe Capsule properly. So, avoid intake of grapefruit or grapefruit juice with the antibiotic.
  • Avoid taking too much calcium, iron-enriched foods, and drinks as it might affect the working of Lymoribe Capsule .
  • Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages with Lymoribe Capsule as it can make you dehydrated and affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid the Lymoribe Capsule in fighting off infections.
