Carephenicol Capsule

Carephenicol Capsule belongs to the group of antibiotic medicines used to treat bacterial infections. It is used to treat typhoid fever and other dangerous infections where other antibiotics are ineffective. Bacterial infections are caused due to the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body. Carephenicol Capsule does not work against infections caused by viruses, including colds and flu.
 
Carephenicol Capsule contains Chloramphenicol, which works by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins necessary for vital bacterial functions. Thus, it kills the bacteria and helps treat and prevent the spread of infections. Carephenicol Capsule is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is active against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.
 
The dose of Carephenicol Capsule can vary depending on your condition and the severity of the infection. In some cases, you may experience common side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and headache.
