Description

INTRODUCTION

MOXIKIND is a combination of Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid which belongs to the group of medicine called Antibiotics. It is indicated for the treatment of various infections like respiratory tract infections (Ex. adequately diagnosed community acquired pneumonia, chronic bronchitis), middle ear and sinus infections (Ex. acute otitis media, acute bacterial sinusitis), urinary tract infections (Ex. pyelonephritis or cystitis), skin and soft tissue infections (Ex. cellulitis, animal bites, dental infection) or bone and joint infections (Ex. osteomyelitis) caused by suspected drug- resistant bacterial strains in both adults and in children (weighing not less than 45 kg). Bacterial infections can be defined as a proliferation of various harmful strains of bacteria in the body. They can affect any part(s) of the body including the respiratory tract, urinary tract, eyes, ears, skin, soft tissue, or bones.

Amoxicillin is a penicillin-like antibiotic that acts by inhibiting the biosynthesis of a protective layer called peptidoglycan in the bacterial cell wall and clavulanic acid is a beta-lactamase inhibitor that acts by the reducing resistance for amoxicillin by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme called beta-lactamase in the bacterial cell. Collectively they interrupt the construction of the bacterial cell wall and ultimately lead to the destruction, or lysis, of the bacteria.

Try to take this medicine with or just after a meal or a snack to avoid feeling sick (nausea). Your doctor will decide the correct dose for you depending upon your age, body weight, health condition and type of infection. During the therapy your doctor might recommend you have several tests to monitor your kidney and liver function to rule the risk of unwanted side effects. Before taking this medicine, inform your doctor if you have any liver or kidney problems. MOXIKIND should be used with caution in pregnant or breastfeeding women. Consult your doctor before taking. The most common side effects of taking this medicine are diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and stomach upset. Consult your doctor if any of the symptoms worsen.

USES OF MOXIKIND

It is used to treat the following bacterial infections in both adults and in children (weighing not less than 40kg):

Middle ear and sinus infections (Ex. acute otitis media, acute bacterial sinusitis)
Respiratory tract infections (Ex. adequately diagnosed community acquired pneumonia, chronic bronchitis)
Urinary tract infections (Ex. pyelonephritis or cystitis)
Skin and soft tissue infections (Ex. cellulitis, animal bites, dental infection)
Bone and joint infections (Ex. osteomyelitis)

HOW MOXIKIND WORKS

MOXIKIND kills the growth of harmful bacteria, where amoxicillin acts by inhibiting the biosynthesis of the peptidoglycan layer (a layer which is responsible for the survival of the bacteria) of the bacterial cell wall and clavulanic acid acts by restoring the antimicrobial effects of amoxicillin by deactivating an enzyme called beta-lactamase (which is responsible for causing resistance to various standard beta-lactam antimicrobials) in the bacterial cell. Collectively they interrupt the construction of the cell wall and ultimately lead to the destruction, or lysis, of the bacteria.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Take this medicine with meals or as advised by your physician. Swallow the medicine as a whole and do not crush or chew the medicine. Your doctor will decide the correct dose for you depending upon your age, body weight and type of infection.
