About Amoxirum Forte 4500mg Injection 1's

Amoxirum Forte 4500mg Injection 1's belongs to the group of medications called antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections.

    Diet & Lifestyle Advise

    • Probiotics should be taken after taking an entire course of Amoxirum Forte 4500mg Injection 1's to restore some 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. Fibre-rich foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains like whole-grain bread and brown rice should be included in your diet.
    • Avoid alcoholic beverages with Amoxirum Forte 4500mg Injection 1's as they can make you dehydrated and may affect your sleep. This can make it harder for your body to aid Amoxirum Forte 4500mg Injection 1's in the fight off infections.

    Special Advise

    • On prolonged therapy, regular monitoring of renal, hepatic, and hematologic functions periodically is advised. Monitor also for signs of anaphylaxis during the first dose.
    • Even if you feel better after taking Amoxirum Forte 4500mg Injection 1's, do not stop taking it until your doctor says so. Stopping Amoxirum Forte 4500mg Injection 1's midway might cause the symptoms to reappear due to antibiotic resistance.
    • Colds, flu, and other viral diseases will not respond to antibiotics such as ampicillin and sulbactam injections. Using antibiotics when they are not required raises your chances of developing an infection that is resistant to antibiotic therapy later on.
