Uses of Moxam Tablet

Treatment of Bacterial infections

Benefits of Moxam Tablet

In Bacterial infection
Moxam kills bacteria by stopping them copying their DNA, treating infections that have not responded to, or are not suitable for, other antibiotics.
In Urinary infection
Moxam clears bacteria from the bladder and kidneys, relieving burning, frequency and pain.
In Chest infection
Moxam treats bacterial chest infections, easing the cough, fever and breathlessness as the infection clears.
In Gut infection
Moxam treats bacterial infections of the gut that cause severe or persistent diarrhoea, particularly when travelling.

How Moxam Tablet works

Moxam 400 Tablet is an antibiotic. It works by stopping the action of a bacterial enzyme called DNA-gyrase. This prevents the bacterial cells from dividing and repairing, thereby killing them.

Warnings and precautions

Stop and contact your doctor at once if you develop pain, swelling or tenderness in a tendon — the Achilles tendon at the back of the ankle in particular. This group can damage tendons, and the risk is higher in older people and with steroids. Report any new numbness, tingling or burning in the hands or feet promptly. Tell your doctor about any change in mood, confusion or agitation. Avoid strong sunlight and use sun protection — this group makes the skin burn more easily. Finish the whole course; this group is heavily associated with antibiotic resistance and should be used only when prescribed.

Do not take Moxam if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Generally avoided in children and adolescents, in pregnancy, and in anyone with a history of tendon problems with these antibiotics.

Interactions with other medicines

Antacids, iron, zinc, calcium and milk markedly reduce absorption — separate them by at least two hours. Tell your doctor if you take steroids, a blood thinner or a medicine for heart rhythm.

How to store Moxam Tablet

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
