About Toplid-600 mg Tablet

Toplid-600 mg Tablet belongs to the class of medicines called 'antibiotics,' combined with probiotics. It is used to treat various bacterial infections, including pneumonia (lung infections), skin and soft tissue infections (infections affecting the skin, muscles, tendons, and ligaments), and infections resistant to other antibiotics. A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria grow in the body and produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you sick.

Toplid-600 mg Tablet contains Linezolid (an antibiotic) and Lactic acid bacillus (a probiotic). Linezolid works by inhibiting the ability of bacteria to produce proteins necessary for their survival and multiplication, thereby preventing their growth.

Thus, Toplid-600 mg Tablet helps treat bacterial infections.
