About KC-Dom Drop Mixed Fruit

KC-Dom Drop Mixed Fruit is used to treat bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, lower respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissue. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body.

KC-Dom Drop Mixed Fruit contains 'Cefpodoxime Proxetil', which is a broad-spectrum antibiotic effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative groups of bacteria. It works by preventing the formation of the bacterial cell covering (cell wall), which is necessary for their survival.

Take this medicine as prescribed. In some cases, you may experience specific common side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea (watery or loose stool), abdominal pain, loss of appetite, bloating, skin rash, and itching. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Do not take antacids and anti-ulcer medications along with KC-Dom Drop Mixed Fruit; maintain a 2-3 hour gap between them.
