Benefits of Novamox AX Tablet
In Respiratory tract infection
Respiratory tract infections are those infections that can affect the sinuses, throat, airways or lungs. Novamox AX Tablet contains two different medicines, Amoxycillin and Ambroxol, that work together to kill the bacteria that cause respiratory tract infections. Amoxycillin works by stopping the growth of bacteria. Ambroxol helps to loosen thick mucus, making it easier to cough out. This makes it easier for air to move in and out. It also enhances the activity of Amoxycillin against bacteria.
It usually makes you feel better within a few days, but you should continue taking it as prescribed even when you feel better to make sure that all bacteria are killed and do not become resistant.
