EC-Dox 30mg/100mg Tablet

EC-Dox 30mg/100mg Tablet is a combination medicine that treats susceptible bacterial respiratory infections while helping to loosen and clear thick mucus from the airways. It is commonly used for the following conditions:

• Bacterial bronchitis: Treats active bacterial infections in the bronchial tubes and thins thick sputum to make coughing less painful.
• Pneumonia: Helps clear the underlying bacterial infection in the lungs while facilitating the removal of sticky mucus.
• Infected bronchiectasis: Manages long-term airway congestion when a bacterial infection causes excess, thick mucus buildup.
   

EC-Dox 30mg/100mg Tablet provides dual-action treatment by addressing both the bacterial infection and the thick mucus that commonly accompanies respiratory illnesses. Its benefits include:

• Treats the Underlying Infection: The doxycycline component stops the growth of susceptible bacteria, helping your body clear the infection and preventing it from worsening.
• Loosens Thick Mucus: The ambroxol component thins and loosens sticky phlegm, making it easier to cough out and helping keep the airways clear.
• Relieves Chest Congestion: By improving mucus clearance, it reduces chest tightness, eases productive coughing, and makes breathing more comfortable.
• Supports Faster Recovery: Treating the infection while improving airway clearance helps relieve symptoms sooner and promotes a quicker return to normal daily activities.
• Helps Prevent Mucus Build-Up: Regular use as prescribed helps reduce the accumulation of thick secretions that can prolong respiratory symptoms and contribute to ongoing airway irritation.
   

• Take EC-Dox 30mg/100mg Tablet with food to avoid stomach upset or as advised by a doctor.
• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication, to ensure the safety.
• Swallow the medicine as a whole with glass of water.
• Do not crush, break, or chew it.

• Stay Well Hydrated: Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water daily to help the mucus-thinning component work more effectively in clearing your airways.
• Avoid Dairy and Calcium Around Your Dose: Avoid dairy products, calcium-fortified juices, and antacids for at least two hours before and after taking your medicine, as calcium blocks its absorption.
• Protect Yourself from Sunlight: Protect your skin from direct sunlight by wearing protective clothing and applying broad-spectrum sunscreen, as this medicine increases your risk of severe sunburn.
• Avoid Smoking and Secondhand Smoke: Avoid smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke, which irritate the lungs and make it harder to clear mucus.
   

• Remain Upright After Each Dose: Do not lie down for at least 30 minutes after taking your dose to protect your oesophagus from irritation and ulcers.
• Complete the Full Course: Finish the entire course of this medicine, even if your symptoms go away, to make sure the infection is completely cleared.
• Separate Mineral Supplements from Your Dose: Do not take iron supplements, multivitamins, or antacids within two hours of taking this medicine, as they will stop it from working properly.
• Check the Expiry Date Before Use: Check the expiration date on the packaging before every use; do not take expired tablets or capsules.
