About Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule

Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule belongs to the class of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, urinary tract, tonsillitis, bronchitis, and pneumonia.

Numox-LB 500 mg 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 balance the number of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract (gut) to manage water loss (diarrhoea) due to antibiotics or infections. Together, Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule helps in treating bacterial infections and coping with the antibiotic's side effect, i.e. infectious diarrhoea.

You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule are heartburn, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, bloating, gas, mouth ulcers, and red or swollen gums. These side-effects usually go away without any medical attention. However, consult a doctor if any of these side-effects persist or get worsen.

Do not take Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule if you are allergic to any antibiotics (especially penicillin). Before taking Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule , inform your doctor if you have asthma, a stomach illness (nausea, vomiting, or digestive problems), short bowel syndrome (physical or functional loss of small intestine), liver disease, kidney disease, glandular fever (fever with a sore throat, swollen glands, and extreme tiredness), a bleeding disorder, weak immune system (by disease or using medicine), and history of antibiotic-induced diarrhoea. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Inform your doctor if you are using birth control pills, as Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule may decrease these pills' efficacy. Do not take Numox-LB 500 mg Capsule on your own as self-medication, as it may cause antibiotic resistance (failure of antibiotics to act against bacterial infections).
