Amoxycillin+serratiopeptidase+lactic Acid Bacillus
About Amoxycillin+serratiopeptidase+lactic Acid Bacillus
Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase belongs to the combination of medicines used to treat various bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, urinary tract, tonsillitis, bronchitis, and pneumonia. Besides this, Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase also helps relieve pain and inflammation in some cases. Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase does not work against infections caused by the virus, including cold and flu.
Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase contains Amoxycillin (an antibiotic), Serratiopeptidase (a probiotic), and Lactobacillus (a probiotic). Amoxycillin prevents the formation of bacterial cells. Lactobacillus helps balance the number of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract (gut) to manage water loss (diarrhoea) caused by antibiotics or infections. Serratiopeptidase dissolves the chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Together, Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase helps treat bacterial infections and cope with the side effects of antibiotics, such as infectious diarrhea and dysentery.
Take Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase with or without food. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects like skin rashes, nausea, vomiting, bloating, and gas. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Before starting Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase, please inform your doctor if you have any allergy to any antibiotic (especially penicillin) or have kidney or liver problems. Avoid taking Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed by a doctor. Avoid alcohol consumption to prevent unpleasant side effects. Inform your doctor about all the medicines you are taking and about your health condition to rule out any unpleasant side effects.
Uses of Amoxycillin+serratiopeptidase+lactic Acid Bacillus
Medicinal Benefits
Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase belongs to the group of antibiotics called Amoxycillin, Serratiopeptidase, and Lactobacillus. Amoxycillin works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell covering, which is necessary for their survival, thereby treating and preventing the spread of infections. Lactobacillus is a probiotic that helps restore the balance of good bacteria in the gut (digestive tract) that have been destroyed due to the use of antibiotics. Serratiopeptidase is an enzyme that dissolves chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase is used to treat various bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, urinary tract, tonsillitis, bronchitis, pneumonia and infectious diarrhoea. Together, Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase helps in treating bacterial infections and infectious diarrhoea. Compared to other antibiotics, Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase has got less antibiotic resistance.

Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Bacterial infections: A bacterial infection is when harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect our body. Infectious or harmful bacteria can make you sick and reproduce quickly in your body. These destructive bacteria produce chemicals known as toxins, which can damage tissue and make you ill. It can target any body part and multiply very quickly. When you get infected with bacteria, you can experience generalized symptoms, like fevers, chills, and fatigue. Bacteria are of various forms, commonly spherical, rod, and spiral-shaped. Bacterial infections vary from minor illnesses like sore throat and ear infections to severe brain infections like meningitis and encephalitis. Anyone can become infected with a bacterial infection. However, people with weak immune systems or taking immunosuppressive medicine are more prone to bacterial infection.
Infectious diarrhoea or dysentery (water loss) is an intestinal infection marked by symptoms such as diarrhoea, cramps, vomiting, nausea, and fever. It mainly occurs due to contaminated food and water. Infectious diarrhoea is also known as gastroenteritis, which is the inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach and intestines). Harmful E. coli bacteria generally cause contagious diarrhoea.
FAQs
Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase is used to treat various bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, skin, urinary tract, tonsillitis, bronchitis, and pneumonia. Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase also helps relieve pain and inflammation in some cases and also used to treat infectious diarrhoea.
Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase contains Amoxicillin (antibiotic), Serratiopeptidase and Lactobacillus (probiotic). Amoxicillin works by preventing the formation of bacterial cell. Lactobacillus helps balance the number of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract (gut) to manage water loss (diarrhoea) due to antibiotics or infections. Serratiopeptidase functions by dissolving the chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Together, Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase helps in treating bacterial infections and coping side effects of the antibiotic, i.e. infectious diarrhea and dysentery.
Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase may cause dizziness. So, drive only if you are alert and omit driving and operating machinery if you feel dizzy.
It is recommended to complete the course of Amoxycillin+lactic Acid Bacillus+serratiopeptidase even if you feel better as it is an antibiotic, and leaving it in between may lead to even severe infection that will stop responding to the antibiotic as well (antibiotic resistance).
