About Lilyclox-500 Capsule

Lilyclox-500 Capsule belongs to the 'antibiotics' class of drugs, primarily used to treat bacterial infections. It is used to treat various infections like bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of your bronchial tubes), pneumonia (infection in one or both lungs), or staphylococcal infections. Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes illness. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly.

Lilyclox-500 Capsule contains Dicloxacillin, a penicillin antibiotic. It has bactericidal (ability to kill bacteria) activity against gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic (requires oxygen to survive) and anaerobic (survives with little or no oxygen) bacteria. Dicloxacillin binds to the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) inside the bacterial cell wall and inhibits cell wall synthesis.
