Adoxa Tablet Uses

Adoxa is an antibiotic that is used for the treatment of a wide range of bacterial infections such as pneumonia, urinary tract infections, acne, eye infections, respiratory infections, chlamydia, and lyme disease, etc. It contains Doxycycline as the active ingredient, a tetracycline antibiotic that works by stopping the growth and spread of bacteria that causes infections. Adoxa is only effective against bacterial infections and should not be used for the treatment of viral infections. Using antibiotics unnecessarily will not only prove to be ineffective but may also make you susceptible to future antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
