Novamox Paediatric Oral Drops 10ml are given orally.

Novamox Paediatric Oral Drops 10ml contain Amoxicillin (100 mg) which works on your child's body in the following ways:

• Bacterial Cell Wall Synthesis Inhibition: Amoxicillin functions by targeting specific proteins called penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) found in bacterial cell walls. These proteins are crucial in maintaining the strength and rigidity of bacterial cells.
• Cell Lysis: By inhibiting these PBPs, Amoxicillin interferes with the process that links together peptidoglycan chains - an important component of bacterial cell walls. This interference weakens the bacteria's cell wall, causing it to rupture or 'lyse', ultimately leading to the death of the bacteria. This action helps manage bacterial infections effectively in children.
