How Cefixime + Cloxacillin + Lactobacillus works

  • Cefixime, an antibiotic belonging to third-generation cephalosporins, interferes with bacterial cell wall construction. It connects with proteins on the cell wall's inner membrane, disrupting the creation of peptidoglycan chains that provide strength to bacterial cell walls.

  • Cloxacillin, a penicillinase-resistant antibiotic, also attacks bacterial cell wall synthesis. It is especially used against bacteria that have grown resistant to regular penicillins.

  • Lactobacillus sporogenes, a probiotic, does not directly fight bacteria. Instead, it works to re-establish the balance of microbes in your gut that might have been disturbed by the antibiotics. Overall, this combination works together, the antibiotics eliminate the harmful bacteria and the probiotic then restores gut health.
