About Doxybond LB Capsule 10's

Doxybond LB Capsule 10's belongs to a group of medications called antibiotics, used to treat bacterial infections such as urinary tract infections, intestinal infections, respiratory infections, eye infections, gum infections, and sexually transmitted infections (like gonorrhoea, syphilis). Bacterial infections are caused due to the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. Doxybond LB Capsule 10's does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu.

Doxybond LB Capsule 10's contains Doxycycline and Lactobacillus. Doxycycline prevents the synthesis of essential proteins which are necessary for the survival of the bacteria, thereby kills the bacteria.

Together, Doxybond LB Capsule 10's helps in treating bacterial infections.
