Product Description

Astyxime AZ LB is a prescription-only medication, and it is important to take it exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The tablet can be taken with or without food, but it is recommended to take it at the same time each day for the best results. Do not exceed the recommended dose, and complete the full course of treatment even if you feel better to ensure the infection is fully treated. Stopping the medication too early may reduce its effectiveness.

How It Works
Astyxime AZ LB 200mg/250mg Tablet combines three active ingredients: Cefixime, Azithromycin, and Lactobacillus.
- Cefixime is an antibiotic that works by preventing the formation of the bacterial cell wall, which is necessary for the bacteria’s survival. This action helps to stop the growth and spread of the infection.
- Azithromycin is another antibiotic that inhibits bacterial growth by preventing the bacteria from producing essential proteins required for their survival and function.
- Lactobacillus is a beneficial microorganism that helps restore the balance of healthy bacteria in the intestines, which can be disrupted by antibiotic use. This can help prevent common digestive side effects, such as diarrhea, that often occur with antibiotic treatments.
Together, these ingredients effectively combat bacterial infections while minimizing digestive upset.
