How Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus works

  • Ampicillin + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus is a combined antibiotic and probiotic medicine.

  • Ampicillin and Cloxacillin are antibiotics that belong to the penicillin group. They work by stopping the growth of bacteria by preventing them from forming a cell wall, which is essential for their survival and multiplication.

  • Lactobacillus is a probiotic, which means it is a friendly bacteria that lives naturally in our gut. It helps to restore the balance of good bacteria in the gut which may have been disrupted by the antibiotics or other infections. This supports overall digestion health and strengthens the immune system.
