About
CEFIXIME+AZITHROMYCIN+LACTOBACILLUS belongs to the group of medicines called antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections of the ear, skin, nose, throat, chest, lungs, and urinary tract. CEFIXIME+AZITHROMYCIN+LACTOBACILLUS is a broad-spectrum antibiotic effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect the body. CEFIXIME+AZITHROMYCIN+LACTOBACILLUS does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu.
CEFIXIME+AZITHROMYCIN+LACTOBACILLUS is a combination of three drugs, namely: Azithromycin, Cefixime, and Lactobacillus. Azithromycin prevents the synthesis of essential proteins which are required for the survival of the bacteria. Cefixime works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for the survival of the bacteria. Thereby, kills the bacteria. Lactobacillus is a probiotic which helps in restoring the balance of good bacteria in the gut, which may have gotten upset due to the infection. Together, CEFIXIME+AZITHROMYCIN+LACTOBACILLUS helps in treating bacterial infections.
