Uses of Ampilox-Lb Capsule

Bacterial infections

Benefits of Ampilox-Lb Capsule

In Bacterial infection
Ampilox-Lb kills the bacteria causing the infection by breaking down their cell walls. You usually start to feel better within a few days, and finishing the course makes sure the infection does not return.
In Throat infection
Ampilox-Lb clears the bacteria behind a sore throat or tonsillitis, so the pain, fever and difficulty swallowing settle.
In Chest infection
Ampilox-Lb treats bacterial infections of the airways and lungs, relieving the cough, fever and breathlessness as the infection clears.
In Skin infection
Ampilox-Lb clears bacterial infections of the skin and soft tissue, bringing down the redness, swelling and pain.
In Urinary infection
Ampilox-Lb kills the bacteria causing burning, frequency and lower abdominal pain, with relief usually starting within a day or two of the first dose.
In Digestive problems
Ampilox-Lb relieves the digestive symptom it was prescribed for, whether that is loose motions, cramps, bloating or an unsettled stomach.
In Loose motions
Ampilox-Lb slows the gut or restores its balance, so stools become formed again and the urgency and cramping settle.
In Restoring gut bacteria
Ampilox-Lb replaces the helpful bacteria the gut loses during diarrhoea or a course of antibiotics, helping digestion settle sooner.
In Stomach protection
Ampilox-Lb coats and protects the stomach lining from acid and irritant medicines, easing pain and allowing the lining to heal.

How Ampilox-Lb Capsule works

Ampilox-LB Capsule is a combination of three medicines: Ampicillin, Dicloxacillin, and Lactobacillus. Ampicillin and Dicloxacillin are antibiotics which work by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering that is essential for the survival of bacteria in the human body. Together, they eradicate your infection effectively. Lactobacillus is a live microorganism which restores the balance of good bacteria in the intestine that may get upset with antibiotic use or due to intestinal infections.

How to take Ampilox-Lb Capsule

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Ampilox-LB Capsule may be taken with or without food.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Ampilox-LB Capsule, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, severe loose motions and, rarely, fits. It may cause bloating and loose motions. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Ampilox-Lb Capsule

Most side effects of Ampilox-Lb are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Loose motions
  • Nausea
  • Rash
  • Vomiting
  • Thrush
  • Bloating
  • Flatulence
  • Stomach discomfort
  • Constipation

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Safety advice for Ampilox-Lb Capsule

AlcoholCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR
Ask your doctor before drinking alcohol while on this medicine.
PregnancyCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR
Consult your doctor before using this in pregnancy.
Breast feedingCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR
Consult your doctor before using this while breastfeeding.
DrivingUNSAFE

KidneyCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR
Consult your doctor if you have kidney disease.
LiverCAUTION
Use with caution if you have liver disease. Your doctor may adjust the dose or monitor your liver function.

Warnings and precautions

Finish the whole course even after you feel better. Stopping early lets the strongest bacteria survive, and they are the ones that come back resistant. Stop and seek emergency care for swelling of the face or throat, difficulty breathing, or a widespread rash — a penicillin allergy can be serious. Tell every doctor and pharmacist if you have ever reacted to penicillin. Tell your doctor if loose motions become severe or watery, or continue after the course — this needs attention rather than an anti-diarrhoeal. Antibiotics do not work against colds, flu or most sore throats, which are caused by viruses. Loose motions with high fever, blood in the stool or severe abdominal pain need a doctor, not a home remedy. Oral rehydration salts and fluids matter more than any medicine when you have loose motions — dehydration is the real danger, especially in children and older people. Take a probiotic a couple of hours apart from an antibiotic so the antibiotic does not simply kill it. Do not use an anti-motility medicine such as loperamide if you have a fever or blood in the stool.

Do not take Ampilox-Lb if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for anyone with a known penicillin allergy. Probiotics are used with caution in people whose immune system is significantly suppressed.

Interactions with other medicines

May reduce the reliability of the oral contraceptive pill if you have vomiting or loose motions — use additional precautions during the course. Tell your doctor if you take methotrexate or a blood thinner. Antibiotics reduce the effect of probiotics taken at the same time.

How to store Ampilox-Lb Capsule

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. Some probiotic preparations ask to be refrigerated — follow the pack. Keep out of the reach of children.

Quick tips for Ampilox-Lb Capsule

  • Ampilox-LB Capsule is given to treat a bacterial infection.
  • It is better to take it when your stomach is empty, which means taking your doses one hour before you eat any food, or waiting until two hours afterward.
  • This is because the food might decrease or delay the absorption of Ampilox-LB Capsule.
  • If you are taking any contraceptive 'pill' at the same time as this antibiotic, the effectiveness of the 'pill' can be reduced if you have a bout of being sick (vomiting) which lasts for more than 24 hours.
  • In such a case, ask your doctor for additional contraceptive precautions.
  • Ampilox-LB Capsule can reduce the effectiveness of oral typhoid vaccine.
  • If you are due to have any vaccinations, make sure the person treating you knows that you are taking this antibiotic.
