In Treatment of Bacterial infections

How P Mox Dry Syrup works

P Mox Dry Syrup contains two active ingredients, Amoxycillin and Cloxacillin. Amoxycillin works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering (cell wall) which is essential for the survival of the bacteria.

By doing so, it kills the infection-causing bacteria and prevents the infection from spreading.

Conditions like common cold and flu are caused by viruses. Never use this medicine for such conditions.
Give P Mox Dry Syrup to your child only for their current infection. Avoid storing the medicine for future use as it is impossible to judge whether the same medicine would work for any future illnesses.
