Megatin Dc Capsule is composed of two antibiotics, ampicillin and dicloxacillin. Megatin Dc Capsule is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, bones, lungs, and post-operative wound infections. Megatin Dc Capsule is bactericidal in nature. It is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in your body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Megatin Dc Capsule works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for their survival. Thereby, it kills the bacteria and helps in treating and preventing the spread of infections. Megatin Dc Capsule does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu. Megatin Dc Capsule is used to treat bacterial infections like bacterial meningitis, intra-abdominal infection, urinary tract infection, respiratory tract infection, endocarditis, shigellosis, and typhoid fever.
