Doxisia Capsule is used to treat bacterial infections of the chest, lungs, nasal cavities (bronchitis, pneumonia, sinusitis), kidneys and bladder infections (cystitis, urethritis), skin infections (acne), and other infections like malaria, cholera, brucellosis (infection due to unpasteurised products), leptospirosis (infection caused by animals’ urine) and psittacosis (infection from parrots).

Doxisia Capsule contains 'Doxycycline' (antibiotic) and Lactobacillus acidophilus (probiotic). Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic. It works by preventing the synthesis of bacterial proteins, which are the primary cursors for carrying out bacteria's vital functions. This process further inhibits bacterial growth. Lactobacillus acidophilus is a probiotic that helps restore good bacteria and reduce stomach upset and diarrhoea caused by antibiotics like Doxycycline.

Like all medicines, Doxisia Capsule also causes side effects, although not everybody gets them. Common side effects of Doxisia Capsule include diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and photosensitivity. If any of these effects persist or worsen, seek medical advice promptly.

It works by preventing the synthesis of bacterial proteins, which are the primary cursors for carrying out bacteria's vital functions. Doxisia Capsule effectively treats acne, pneumonia, bronchitis, Q fever or tick fever (bacterial infection caused by the bite of infected ticks), brucellosis (infection spread from animals), and psittacosis (infections spread from birds). It is also used to treat malaria, cholera, and sexually transmitted diseases, such as syphilis, gonorrhoea, or chlamydia. Doxycycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that prevents the synthesis of bacterial proteins required to carry out bacteria's vital functions. This process further inhibits bacterial growth. Lactobacillus acidophilus is a probiotic (live bacteria). It is used to restore good bacteria in the intestine and reduces the stomach upset and diarrhoea caused by antibiotics like Doxycycline. Lactobacillus acidophilus also effectively treats lactose intolerance, Crohn's disease (inflammatory bowel disease), bacterial overgrowth in the intestines, and vaginal yeast infections caused by antibiotics.

• Include more fibre-enriched food in your diet, as it can be easily digested by your gut bacteria, which helps stimulate their growth. Thus, fibre foods may help restore healthy gut bacteria after a course of antibiotics. Whole grains like whole-grain bread, and brown rice should be included in your diet.
