About Odyfos Powder Mango

Odyfos Powder Mango is an antibiotic used to treat or prevent bladder infections. Bladder infection is mostly caused by a bacterial infection within the bladder. Bacteria enter through the urethra, move into the bladder and cause infections.

Odyfos Powder Mango contains Fosfomycin, which inhibits the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) necessary for survival. Thus, it kills bacteria. Also, Odyfos Powder Mango decreases the attachment of bacteria to cells lining the urinary bladder, thereby preventing bladder infection caused by E.coli bacteria. 

Take Odyfos Powder Mango as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Odyfos Powder Mango for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience dizziness, headache, indigestion, and vulvovaginitis (swelling or infection of the vulva and vagina) as side effects of Odyfos Powder Mango. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Please tell your doctor if you are allergic to Odyfos Powder Mango, some sugars or other medicines. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before taking Odyfos Powder Mango. Odyfos Powder Mango is not recommended for children below 12 years of age. Odyfos Powder Mango is contraindicated in patients with severe kidney problems and patients undergoing hemodialysis (a process of purifying blood by filtering out extra fluids and wastes when kidneys are not working). If you previously had diarrhoea caused by other antibiotics, inform your doctor before taking Odyfos Powder Mango.

Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like cheese, yoghurt, kombucha, sauerkraut and kimchi can help restore the intestine's good bacteria.
