About Nonumycin 12.5mg Syrup
Nonumycin 12.5mg Syrup belongs to the class of medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat bacterial infections caused by susceptible Gram-negative bacteria. Bacterial infections are caused by the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. These harmful bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick. Symptoms of bacterial infection vary depending on the organ affected by bacteria.
Nonumycin 12.5mg Syrup contains Colistin Sulphate. Colistin effectively solubilizes the bacterial cell membrane, resulting in bacterial cell death. As a result, Nonumycin 12.5mg Syrup destroys the bacteria and successfully treats the infection.
