About Healclox-LS Capsule
Healclox-LS Capsule belongs to the class of antibacterial agents used to treat various types of bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, urinary tract, tonsillitis, bronchitis, and pneumonia. Besides this, Healclox-LS Capsule prevents antibiotic-associated diarrhoea, dysentery (water loss), and infectious diarrhea. Healclox-LS Capsule is a broad-spectrum antibiotic effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
Healclox-LS Capsule is a combination of Amoxycillin (antibiotic), Cloxacillin (antibiotic), Lactic acid bacillus (probiotic) and Serratiopeptidase. Amoxycillin and coxacillin work by preventing the formation of bacterial cells. Lactic acid bacillus is a probiotic that helps restore the balance of good bacteria in the gut (digestive tract).

Together, Healclox-LS Capsule kills the bacteria and prevents the growth of bacterial infection.

Cloxacillin blocks the third and last stage of the synthesis of the outer layer (cell wall) of bacteria.

Serratiopeptidase dissolves chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).
