About OPOX CV 50MG DT TABLET

OPOX CV 50MG DT TABLET is used to treat various bacterial infections such as pharyngitis/tonsillitis (throat infections), otitis media (ear infections), sinusitis (infection of the sinuses), community-acquired pneumonia, gonorrhoea (sexually transmitted disease), anorectal infections in women, as well as skin and urinary tract infections.
